Chef Daniela Kalota of Kalota Culinary and journalist Grant Hermes dive deep into the refrigerators of their guests to make gourmet meals out of what's lying around, or may have been lying around for a while.


Accompanied by Daniela's 20 years of experience as a chef and culinary instructor, and Grant's passion for home cooking, they bring a special tip to each episode to help level up your cooking game and open up the world of cooking, even if you haven't been to the grocery store.
