Profiles

René Redzepi's second-in-command Daniel Giusti gets the profile treatment from the Washington Post, which tracks the 29-year-old's trajectory from his NJ childhood to Noma's chef de cuisine. According to his boss, Giusti excels at managing the kitchen and handling in-service crises, though Redzepi notes his head chef could stand to relax more: "I've told him to relax. I mean, it's not life or death. He treats it like it's life or death." [WaPo]
