CheftimonyAuthor: Graham MacLennan
Talking to chefs and sometimes lawyers... My name is Graham MacLennan and I've spent most of the last 20 years in law offices and in restaurant kitchens, so the people I know best are chefs and lawyers. On Cheftimony, I talk to both groups, but always to people who love food. Language: en Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

Cheftimony Snack - Steakhouse Status
Friday, 3 April, 2026
It’s a quick snack today to bring you up to date on where we’ve been in Season 7 and where we’re going next.We’ve had two full episodes so far, both squarely focused on the theme of the season – the steakhouse. Because Las Vegas is both my favourite city to visit and a global contender for best steakhouse city, the discussions have been very Vegas-centric.On Episode 079 and Episode 080, we started to explore just why the steakhouse remains so popular by speaking with chefs, a lawyer and members of the passionate Vegas podcasting and vlogging community. Today, I give a quick recap of those episodes.I also share a few thoughts on just three of my many beloved steakhouses in Las Vegas. These are Herbs and Rye off-Strip, SW at the Wynn on-Strip, and Oscar’s at the Plaza as my Downtown favourite.The Plaza has its own great podcast, On the Corner of Main Street, and one of my favourite episodes features an interview with long-serving Oscar’s waiter Nick Ziai. Nick has been serving in Las Vegas for decades and captures just why service is such a big part of the magic of the steakhouse.At the end of the show today, I ask for your help in making this season better. If you have a steakhouse question or a steakhouse story to share, get in touch!All right, it’s a quick one today. To the steakhouses we go.
