About this listen

Chef Sam Yoo joins the crew for a freewheeling conversation that veers from pancake engineering and Korean fried chicken techniques to the realities of running restaurants post-pandemic. The founder of Golden Diner and Golden HOF breaks down the logistics of high-volume brunch, dry-aged steak precision, and operating a new concept in the same space as his parents’ former restaurant. The team also covers everything from vacuum-fried steaks to risotto starch hacks and late-summer berry dreams.


Diner to Dynasty – Sam walks through launching Golden Diner and converting his parents’ former Midtown restaurant into Golden HOF, a Korean pub and steakhouse hybrid with upstairs-downstairs service models and dual menus designed for post-pandemic dining patterns.


Pancakes and Porterhouse – Sam unpacks the precise workflow behind Golden Diner’s viral honey maple butter pancakes, explains the reasoning behind Korean fried chicken’s glassy crust, and shares how his team cooks a porterhouse steak with separate zone timing to nail both the strip and filet.
