Author Mandy Naglich joins us again (check out her episode in Season 1, she's so damn cool). But this time, it's an all out bitch fest; an entire episode of our favorite segment "I DON'T F*CK WITH THAT". We recap all the answers of Season 1 guests and gleefully disect them. PLUS, restaurant red flags, the food traps that catch us, why drinking should be hot and Mandy tells us all about her new book project! Come along for the fest, Taste Buds.

This episode, we are joined by Chef Eric Huang of Pecking House. A chef whose resume includes the TOP tier of NYC dining, a 10,000 person wait list level hype & the rare distinction of being expelled from Julliard before finding his real life instrument ( a chef's knife ;) We discuss toxic kitchen culture & actual heart damage from working in the WORLD'S BEST RESTAURANT, the brutal vulnerabilty of opening AND closing restaurants & what it means to cook Chinese food in America when race, expectation and economics are always on the plate. All this and a blind fried chicken tasting. It gets SPICY, taste buds.

We are BACK, Taste Buds! We know you missed us. Today, we have hospitality titan, Michelin Star collector and the DADDY of Myriad Restaurant Group, Drew Nieporent. His new memoir is out and in it, he spills proverbial tea, but we got him to dish with us a bit more. The BREW with Drew anyone?! What chef has the biggest ego, what restaurant does he wish was his, IS he feuding with Keith McNally? ALL this, while slagging Daniel Boulud, his favorite Beatles song and admitting he sneaks booze into restaurants. Holy hell, it's a good one. @drewnieporent

The director and writer Seth Zvi Rosenfeld also joins us to share his vision during what was a very uncertain time in 2021 when the project was filmed. Truly a neighborhood institution after 30 years, we talk to Bea & Julio about what keeps them going, their committment the farmer's market, Julio's dislike of the word "hospitality", the importance of community & connection and why you are coming for the "grumpy service" and "terrible food". Find out what your should be putting in your mouth at this gem of a restaurant and find out how/when to watch the film! @ilpostoaccanto

Taste Buds! Welcome to our first episode with a RETURN guest! Not only does award wining sommelier Tira Johnson (Chez FiFi, Sushi Noz) return BUT she is joined by another award winning sommelier AND restaurant owner of SMITHEREENS, Nikita Malhotra. Yes, that's 2 badass women in wine on 1 couch. How did we get so lucky? We cover a lot of terroir this episode; from the current state of food media and reviews, to how they each approach creating their wine lists, "BURGUNDY BROS", the oldest bottles they have ever drank and their go to karaoke songs. Plus, UGLY BABIES! THE BEST OYSTERS EVER! ANNNNNNND we play a very silly game we made up called SIP OR SPIT! Dolly also makes an appearance so you might wanna watch this one for the dog alone.

Welcome to the podcast that is equal parts food celebration and bitch session! Either way, we have Chef Chaz Brown this week to yap so many hot takes; why he is strictly team "NO CAVIAR", honoring his heritage through food, his hatred of the word "authentic" and why he wishes mean food reviews would make a come back. All this and a shit ton more. @chewy_gluten

This is a spicy one so grab the milk! Sarah Morissey is a leader in the NYC bartending world. This bish is a creative force and one helluva human. Sooooo it sucked that we had to discuss her unfortunate recent firing bc of a substack she wrote that showed nothing but love to her place of work. Do you agree or disagree with the decision? BUT Sarah is already plotting her next move so listen to find out what she's up to. Lala also brings her male grooming preferences into the convo, Judith admits the sex acts she would perform on Colin Farrell and we get so much good shit from Sarah. Find out how her career started and why she never wants to make a Paper Plane ever again. @mozzy_sticks_87

Welcome back to PUT IT IN MY MOUTH, the irreverent food podcast where nothing is sacred...except snacks. This week, we are flipping the script; your usual hosts, Judith & Lala are putting themselves in the hotseat. The ladies talk about how they stumbled (staggered?) into the hospitality industry, the travels that made them hungry (hungriER?), their most delicious food moments, and what's really doing it for them in the NYC restaurant scene. Plus, the question on everyone's mind...has either succumbed to the labubu trend? Stick around to hear about Lala's perimenopausal chin hair and Judith's old age gripes about restaurants being too damn loud.
