Rachel Lewis, Chef/Food Stylist/Singer: The Gut is Always Correct (S3 E14)

Kites and Strings

In today's episode, we talk with Rachel Lewis, who checks several boxes in the land of creative. At the beginning of season 3, Catherine and Steve wondered aloud about bringing in not only chef, foodie type people, as we have consistently thought that being a chef required a combination of what we think is the more traditional create spirit coupled with the more precise measuring and scientific mindset. We were looking to take it a but further though, as we wanted to talk with a chef who abides by additional rules and guidelines, and expressively mentioned a vegan chef.
Enter Rachel Lewis. As you will hear early in the interview, she answered and ad Steve put out seeking a lead singer for his band, Butterfield Creek. Before she even auditioned, it was learned that she's the co-owner of Sunshine Kitchen a vegan and gluten free food truck south of Chicago, that she's been a personal chef for several families with similar food restrictions, and as a bonus, she's also a food stylist who's worked on many huge contracts and campaigns.
Happy to say too that Rachel also brings it in the way of vocal chops, she won the audition and is two shows in with the band. There are some samples of her singing with the band in this episode too.
