Season 1 | Episode 6: Sam Drakard on getting into cheffing and the differences between the private sector and fine dining restaurants

Today, I am talking to Sam Drakard, a good friend who talks about his experiences as a Chef. Having already had a fascinating career, spanning many parts of the chef world, Sam’s first Private Chef role was in a luxury ski chalet in the French Alps. From there, he’s gone on to working in private residences all around the world.    He has some great stories and tips for anyone looking to get into the industry. In this episode we discuss: 🎙️ The main differences between the private sector and restaurants, for a chef  🎙️ What his favourite thing to cook is (you’ll never guess!)  🎙️ Why you might need to think twice before dating a chef    Sam lets us in on what it’s really like in the kitchen – as glamorous as the location may be, some things are always the same. But the experiences, friendships and all the bits in between make for a very fulfilling career – basically, creating a plate of food that someone is enjoys eating, is all you can really ask for.    Connect with Sam on LinkedIn – www.linkedin.com/in/samuel-aj-drakard
