The grand master of cooking brought a new apprentice in the kitchen — his 12-year-old granddaughter, who joins him and Bizarre Food’s Andrew Zimmern for a wide-ranging discussion about his book, A Grandfather’s Lessons: In the Kitchen with Shorey. Ever since she was very young, his granddaughter, Shorey, has loved “helping” him in the kitchen.
