108: Dave Rizo

When Yellow Rose opened shop in the East Village in 2020, the fresh flour tortillas and silky bean-and-cheese filling took the city by storm—never mind the early-pandemic limitations that left restaurateurs juggling between takeout and outdoor dining. In this episode of the TASTE Podcast, we talk to co-owner and chef Dave Rizo about some of these challenges, and why he and co-owner Krystiana Rizo decided to bring their style of Texan cooking to the East Village. Also on this episode, hosts Anna Hezel and Matt Rodbard make a special announcement, and producer Pat Stango joins us for a brief departure from regular programming. More from the living legend Anna Hezel:The New Rules of Nonstick [TASTE]The Great Camp Cooking Boom [TASTE]Wait, Canned Salmon Is Good? [TASTE]Why Does This One Couch From West Elm Suck So Much? [The Awl]
