Chefs Alfred Portale and Bill Telepan talk about celebrating Gotham Bar and Grill’s 30th anniversary and what gives a restaurant staying power in our very competitive city. Michael Gibney takes us inside a professional kitchen to show us the camaraderie and choreography that goes into making a wonderful plate of food. Carla Hall, host of “The Chew,” explains how food can help forge connections between people–and shares some of her favorite comfort foods. We'll discuss the resurgent popularity of Rieslings. And this week’s Please Explain is about insomnia and other sleep disturbances.
