, food director and host Chris Morocco is joined by Shilpa Uskokovic to help Lale Arikoglu, the articles director at Condé Nast Traveler and host of thepodcast, find meals to cook on vacation for a group with a lot of dietary restrictions.
Lale and her friends take frequent trips to Long Island. It’s all fun and games until they have to decide what to cook for dinner. Everyone seems to have a different allergy or aversion to something. Except for Lale, of course, who eats everything yet is paralyzed by the question of what to cook for everyone else. One of her friends can’t eat nightshades , her husband doesn’t like cheese, and others avoid shellfish and red meat.
