Max Trujillo and special guest host Amber Freeman, from CBS’ My Carolina, talk with Kevin Cottrell, the executive chef and partner of Machete in Greensboro. The episode delves into the backstory of Machete, which opened in February 2020 right before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and evolved from a supper club. Cottrell discusses his culinary journey, the struggles and triumphs of opening a fine dining restaurant, and how the restaurant's menu balances elevated cuisine with accessibility by incorporating unique inspirations like junk food. The conversation also covers Cottrell's experiences working at high-profile restaurants, the creative freedom of his pop-up supper club days, and the challenges and rewards of introducing upscale dining to Greensboro.

We also get into their other venture, Yokai, which opened in September 2022 offering a casual Japanese dining experience. Max may bring up his Japanese commercial. Get ready.
