When Paul Lillakas describes his profession, it becomes apparent that thinking on your feet is just another part of working in the media and as a chef.
Listen to the newest episode of EstoCast, where Paul Lillakas shares his path to becoming a TV chef, what watching The Simpsons has taught him, which legendary people he would invite to a dinner party (and what he'd cook for them)… and the conclusion to one of his nerve-wracking early live television moments!
In this episode of EstoCast, Estonian-Canadian chef and recipe writer Paul Lillakas tells us all about:
✅ how taking part in a TV competition changed his life forever
✅ how a Craigslist ad got him work with a world-famous DJ
✅ his transition from developing recipes for magazines to cooking on television
✅ which of his heroes he’d invite to a dinner party (plus what he’d cook for them)
✅ how comedy has made him who he is
✅ and much more!
