In this episode of the Scoolinary podcast, we sip tea with Karime López, a visual artist turned professional chef once she discovered that food is its own kind of art. Now the executive chef at Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura in Florence, Italy, Karime indulges her creativity in the global menu she’s helped design for the restaurant. She explains how her age and gender kept getting her stuck in one area of the culinary arts when she was just starting out (but then she reveals how it has served her well since then). While her food may be divine, she’s also got a practical streak for developing dishes, yet it’s her multicultural experience — starting with her native Mexico, that’s empowered her to create edible (and visual) works of art.
