Every honest chef wants to learn and has never learned enough. It is a lifelong experience. A lifestyle of learning and growing. Every single day a new opportunity. There is no end game. Those who would "already know best" aren't honest enough with themselves or are in the wrong line of work.
Nyesha is a very good host. About time Eater gives us someone of quality that know what they are talking about and it’s not forced verbage!!! Please give us more of her.

First time here. This lady has a great vibe. She clearly is trained but I love how she is so humble when given the opportunity to work side by side with the staff. The volume of steaks ordered each day in this place is mind boggling. Without actually eating one of these, I'll go out on a limb and say I'd prefer mine sous vide and then finished under that frickin' blow torch of a broiler!

I love the way they let the restaurant tell the story. There’s no fillers by the host making a script. She has exprience in the kitchen and she made it look she’s been working there for a decade. Amazing storytelling. Nice change from food we feast style.

Probably my favorite host from any of this genre of youtube food show. Let the subjects of the show explain things while not slowing them down at all by being inexperienced, and at certain times her experience just helped her put into words something the chef was unable to or helped lead them down the right path to explain the subject more clearly. Helps the people on the show behave more naturally, and really lets the food and process shine.

Its nice seeing a show about a kitchen where the presenter actually knows what's going on and can explain etc. So.many cooking shows have a personality not a chef presenting so they go into the kitchen and the kitchen staff have to.explain everything as though explaining to a novice. This video was refreshing to say the least
Thank you Peter Lugar (All the Employees). Excellent Video.
I ate at Peter Luger’s on May 31st of 2019. I’ll tell ya, their steaks and food there are so good that I think about it all every single day! Never has a meal stayed with me for so long and will never disappear from my mind. I truly can’t wait to go back there again and have another truly unforgettable meal.

Hey Eater, I need you to have Nyesha host all of your shows that require traveling to various restaurants throughout the world and learning how each kitchen operates and makes. their signature dishes. I will bet every penny your ratings will increase because of her. She exudes the passion to learn and share knowledge while simultaneously making it fun. I just smile when I see her because I know whatever I watch, it is going to be good. The point is MORE NYESHA. Make that happen. THANK YOUUUUUUUU. Have a good day.

Nyesha has such an amazing energy, that was extremely enjoyable. Been to this very place once while being on a business trip to NY and I can confirm steaks taste delicious. They also had at the time of my visit a great selection of wines from Bordeaux. A bit expensive though, but definitely worth it.
That was simply mouth watering awesome. Nyesha you totally rocked that vid. Thanks so much. My mouth started watering when you went into the dry age room. And, I just put this restaurant on my bucket list. I loved that the co-owner and staff were so generous with their time and so welcoming as you noted at the end. They know what it takes to be successful in the restaurant business.
Love the fist bumps, thank yous, and overall politeness of the host. So professional.
Nyesha is amazing she made this whole video worth the watch!
She's awesome. Because you can tell she loves every single thing about food, from logistics to prep to cooking to eating.
A fellow chef just knows, the hours, the dedication, the sacrifice made
her attitude itself is making me smile ♥️ I love positive ppl
I will 100% be visiting this place now. Awsome vid thank you!!!!
Nyesha is a fantastic host! So personable and also knowledgeable about how a kitchen is run, which makes sense of course since she's a chef in her own right.
I am so glad someone mentioned on camera how filet rarely has flavor. I'd take a ribeye or strip over filet all day long. Nyesha is a great host, it was nice seeing someone give the proper respect to the way kitchens run and what they need to have to run right! Very good job on her part!
