Today's guest if MJ Adams. MJ is a chef who started her career in NYC over 30 years ago. We discuss her pursuit of a culinary career long before sexual harassment and discrimination towards women in kitchens was ever addressed. MJ's career spanned historic restaurants like Gage & Tollner, Home, Allison on Dominick, and more.
MJ ultimately moved back to South Dakota to start her restaurant, The Corn Exchange, which she owned and operated for over 15 years.
