With seven restaurants in the Valley, Chef Christopher Collins really knows how to multi-task! In this episode, we talk about how his love of food started as a little boy in the kitchen with his father, Wally, also a chef and restaurateur. Collins now owns Collins Brothers Public House, Grassroots Kitchen and Tap, Wally's American Gastropub, Sweet Provisions, The Collins Small Batch Kitchen, The Macintosh, The Neighborly, and Arcadia Catering Company. Collins shares how he gets it all done while raising two boys with his wife, Melissa—through laser focus on the present. He spills the tea on a new concept he's creating and on how to make a crowd favorite dish at your next family dinner.
