Definitely asking farmers what I can get off their hands at the market now. Doing something good while giving yourself a creative challenge in the kitchen sounds like a win-win.
I met him when he was in culinary school. I knew his roommate, and hung out with him once or twice. He was driven, ambitious, and quietly funny at the time. I suspect that hasn't changed much, he seems like he's still a nice guy.
I’ve been searching for more behind the scenes content and this hit the spot. I love the fact he and his father made the space and used wood from places dear to his heart.
Check out About to Eat’s RUclips channel! They have a Day in the Life of different chefs and it’s a great behind the scenes perspective! This video kind of reminded me of it but it’s just a different feel!
@@maryle126 Yes indeed! I’ve been subscribed to that channel for about 1 year and started with their Day in the life of Michelin Chef with Chef Jane at Jeju noodle. Excellent stuff and glad that Worth It! Is on there now also.
@@PaulGLarsson They're all copies of the same format - "day in the life" - First We Feast has a whole playlist of these called "Food Skills." Bon App likes to "structure" things with acts, which is smart, it tries to give you an incentive to keep watching, but they ruined that by calling it 24 hours when that is not even remotely true.
I adore how relatable this chef comes across!!! None of the usual pomp and showing off you usually see. Just seems like an ordinary guy who's developed a pair of great restaurants! Really can't express how happy this makes me.
Inspiring guy. Love seeing how he challenges himself with dishes and help reduce waste whenever possible. But credits to the video editor because 11:31 transition was smoooooothhhh.
I didn't know he was Jerry Seinfield's personal chef before opening this restaurant. I like his energy and will try his restaurant next time I'm in NYC. Very good content and brava on minimizing food waste!
The best video on food/restaurant I ever watched so far. After watching great videos, like Jiro Dreams of Sushi and few episodes of Antony Bourdain's Layover/No Reservation, no other food channel or video gave that original feeling of simplicity, aesthetic, cleanness, beauty and organization like this one. May God bless chef Greg, grant success to his restaurants, and keep Brooklyn a peaceful and lovely place.
That was fascinating, would like to see more from this guy. Great tip for the duck! You've inspired me to get a nice duck, break it down and experiment with some new ideas.
Mad props. I would have loved to see this confident composure during service. But you could already tell that just by seeing him mise. Also. Shout out to the prep señiora!!! 💪🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love how he does as much as he can to reduce food waste and use left overs to create other dishes or food items. That makes me want to spend money at a restaurant like that.
this is one of the few fine dining places I've seen that I would actually want to eat at. not only is it beautiful, but I'm also very curious about that rutabaga pasta lol.
Worst mistake is watching these videos after getting ready for bed… mouth ends up watering so bad that I have to get up out of bed and go eat something. I end up brushing and flossing twice!
As an Englishman, his pronunciation of Norwich made me smile. A lot of British town names are not pronounced as they're written... Anyone want to hazard a guess at how this one is pronounced: Wymondham.
I absolutely love his initiative to reduce food waste when collaborating with farmers. Such a great idea!
Actually, food pantries come to pick up the stuff that vendors in the farmer's can't sell. So the food isn't wasted whether he buys it.
Definitely asking farmers what I can get off their hands at the market now. Doing something good while giving yourself a creative challenge in the kitchen sounds like a win-win.
@@GlazeonthewickeR you sound like you dont have a passion in life
Here here chef. Yes
So what did you take off their hands?
@@crowtein6104 surprisingly my mushroom guy said he only has problem selling lions mane which I happily buy up now.
If you take it off the farmer's markets hands, it wouldn't go to soup kitchen and food pantries.

Hows your cooking career?
@@dannyMCDelight He didn't say HE was in culinary school
@@hegeliandianetik2009 chill bro lmao
@@ronaldbibi209 hes not wrong though lmao
@@MBDR99 yeah but still chill
All employees deserve such an amazing leader; outstanding confidence, composure and execution. A pleasure to watch.
we dont call him leader. we call him führer

He puts his pointer finger on the spine of the knife, isn’t that bad
@@girlyitsmesharon3526 usually the contrary. not good nor bad, but generally is a sign of someone who knows how to use a knife.
Maybe a strange comment, but for an American he has such a soft spoken unaffected natural, European ? vibe (am European)
It's always fascinating about behind the scenes in a well run restaurant. Especially when it's a Michelin awarded winning restaurant.
Interesting whether it’s got a Michelin star or not. The Michelin system is a joke
@@chrissykes4470no if it’s a star then it will always say star because of those rules and branding. they were most likely recognized but not stared
real
I like that he lets his cooks experiment sometimes.
every kitchen lmao
@@RauTheCow not every kitchen just smart ones especially when it’s encouraged and added to the menu

Eater has a lot of good ones, this is basically a copy of their format
@@PaulGLarsson Yeah Mise En Place is really good to watch

Nice, should do more of these.
Does no one care that its called 24 hours but its just 9 hours on the line?
It's more like 12 if we're going there
@@NYCFoodGuyDotCom yes noone cares
just watch Eater instead
@Anthony I agree 100%. This was great!
I adore how relatable this chef comes across!!!

I love that he works with the farmer marker personnel in a way that benefits them and the earth. Also that he is mindful of waste. Great episode
I just had dinner at Olmsted for the first time last month. It was amazing. The duck dish will be a fond memory forever.
I didn't know he was Jerry Seinfield's personal chef before opening this restaurant. I like his energy and will try his restaurant next time I'm in NYC. Very good content and brava on minimizing food waste!
This watched just like a short film. Loved it.
Hopefully this become a series.
I absolutely loved this!! I've been in the industry a long time and this is such a fun thing to see, almost comforting. Definitely do more of these!
Glad Greg's getting more publicity. Loved what olmstead were during the pandemic.
Way better than much of the content put out this past year.
Please make this a series i would rather watch this over the other food content in my free time when im not looking for new stuff to try cooking

This is the American dream. This is where ambition, drive, and a dream can get you. Never give up.
Watching you working so clean and organized is just a perfect combination
Good inspiration chef thanks
I would like to see a follow up, not with the chef of the restaurant, but one of the line cooks.
Same!
You should watch the video on Olmsted on Eaters, the chef seems like an outstanding person
I love hearing how families support each other
I'd follow him around the farmer's market and buy everything he does
Same but would we be able to make what he makes with the stuff lol
@@laneythelame nope lol
This is the content I subscribed for.
Omg LOVED THIS!! I would completely binge a series of these. So good
I went to Olmsted before the pandemic (2019) when I was visiting a friend in NYC. Food was superb and the service was great. Well worth the money!
More of this type content please. Fascinating.
Incredible level of care, passion, and consistency. Amazing
I would love to try some of this food. Looks great! The restaurant has a very cozy homey feel to it. Beautiful! 🧡
Truly one of the best brunches I've ever had, so so worth a trip! Great job team :)
That was fascinating, would like to see more from this guy. Great tip for the duck! You've inspired me to get a nice duck, break it down and experiment with some new ideas.
Love the humble beginnings and how the chef tries to reduce waste while creating high quality dishes.
Who cares
@@GlazeonthewickeR clearly a lot of people do
This was amazing! Hope it becomes a series
Love both of his restaurants - it’s nice living so close to great food
Mad props. I would have loved to see this confident composure during service. But you could already tell that just by seeing him mise.
Also. Shout out to the prep señiora!!! 💪🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I just wanna say wow. Beautiful restaurant and outstanding ethics
This is a great video, definitely should do more of these
Amazing content! More of these pleaaaaase!
Please do more docs like this. Thanks..Really enjoyed it.
This was amazing!!! Would love to see this as a series 😍😍😍
I love how he does as much as he can to reduce food waste and use left overs to create other dishes or food items. That makes me want to spend money at a restaurant like that.
Such a passionate yet kind and coolheaded chef, I’ll be sure to swing by if I’m ever in town!
I love this kind of content. Please do more of this!
Nice ,the food looks clean yet still looks sumptuous. Also his approach to being a restauranteur is responsible and not wasteful 💪💪👍👍
Yep! This is now on my to do list if I'm visiting NY.
this is one of the few fine dining places I've seen that I would actually want to eat at. not only is it beautiful, but I'm also very curious about that rutabaga pasta lol.
this was so interesting! would love to see more
This was fireeeeeeee! More restaurant features like these please!
Best Bon Appetit video thus far! By a long shot!!
Really enjoyed this video and would love if it became a series 🤞🏻
What a lovely, thoughtful person and chef!
Great idea for a series! Very interesting - I’d like to see more.
Something that's overproducing is thriving, so it makes perfect sense to use it at this level of cooking!
I enjoyed that, thank you for creating this video. Loved seeing what goes on in the kitchen
I'm impressed at the turnaround going for bon appetite
Really impressed. So many inventive dishes, fresh and beautiful. I’m definitely trying Olmsted next trip to NY.
Amazing video and wonderful recipe as always by Great chef and teacher . Hats off to you sir !!
I can’t stand throwing away or wasting food, so the fact he works with the organic farmer to avoid waste is amazing!
the food looks so aesthetic and beautiful im hungry now
MY GOODNESS PEOPLE CAN BE GREAT, JUST MAKING FOOD IT SHOWS THEIR HEARTS AND GOODNESS.
Loved this! Would enjoy more of these.
Loved breaking down the ducks. Good content.
Worst mistake is watching these videos after getting ready for bed… mouth ends up watering so bad that I have to get up out of bed and go eat something. I end up brushing and flossing twice!
Love that you put your heart into this place. It's very lovely.
Super dope video. Definitely more of this please 🙏
Been to Maison Yaki! Didn't love everything but definitely a must-try! The best scallops and pork belly yakitori!
I like how he discusses he reduces food waste. But wish he would reduce food waste by bringing produce bags or reusable bags.
Watching while eating a ham and cheese sandwich is a different experience
I'm snacking on Ritz crackers 😅
I missed this series! So glad to see a version of it back on bon appetite!
As an Englishman, his pronunciation of Norwich made me smile.
A lot of British town names are not pronounced as they're written... Anyone want to hazard a guess at how this one is pronounced: Wymondham.
Or Happisburgh. Same too with several surnames. Good luck pronouncing my nan's maiden name Featherstonhaugh. Here's a hint: it's two syllables.
@@gagamba9198 whoa.... Not a clue!

Best Bon Appetit video for a while, more please.
Please please make more videos like this. Loved it !
Being a chef is one of the best jobs out there!
This Chef is a treasure.
Yes, please. And more please
Amazing 15 minutes. I learned a lot.
Please do more of these. Fantastic!
Very nice. Inspirational and beautiful to watch. Well done chef and video crew.
keep this up. love to see it!
this place on my lists of where to eat on my next trip to NYC.
Great video, very interesting concept.
great video and great chef, some delicious looking food too
Chill dude. Love that success for him!
More of these plz
Drinking game: take a drink every time the word “duck” is said
Woah! This is amazing
Thoroughly enjoyed this.
Literally your notification bring a smile on my face.
That rutabaga pasta sounds delicious
I would love a bowl of it.
Amazing! But my heart broke at "We use ducks necks for stock". They are a delicacy! Way to delicous then to just use them for stock.
Different culture different food use, easy as that lol
Something about watching this while eating my Frito pie feels very, very right.
Definitely going here when I’m in Brooklyn next time.
as a regular at Olmsted good to see this im there atleast 1s a week
Fabulous!!! Would love to see more
more videos like this! and longer.
More of this please
This is a great segment, more please
casings are the best part of a sausage. Gotta have that crack not just a crunch, but maybe im just too southern @10:50
