Master Chef Rich Rosendale Discusses Ghost Kitchens, Culinary School and Diversification

This is the Chefs Without Restaurants podcast. Each week we speak with food entrepreneurs, and let them tell their story. Our audio podcast is a more polished version, but for the YouTube version, we’re keeping it raw and unedited.

On this episode, we have Certified Master Chef Rich Rosendale. Rich has a number of business ventures including Rosendale Collective, RC Culinary Lab, Rosendale Events, the Rosendale Online learning platform, and the Leesburg, Virginia restaurant Roots 657. Rich led the United States culinary team at the Bocuse d'Or culinary competition, and had that experience documented in the movie The Contender.

We discuss diversifying your business, and how he’s been adapting during the Covid-19 pandemic. We talk about a variety of topics including culinary school, ghost kitchens, leadership in the kitchen, culinary competitions and high-tech kitchen equipment.
