Hahri Can Cook May 30, 2018

Show notes

Korean American cook Hahri Shin grew up in a Japanese restaurant in Philadelphia and rediscovered his culinary roots while living in Los Angeles. Now he's in Madison, trying to connect with the local food scene by hosting Korean American supper club pop-ups at his home -- all the while receiving dialysis three times a week and waiting for a kidney transplant. This week on the podcast, it's kimchi, bratwurst and no more avocados (at least not for Hahri).
