No Reservations - Raw With Chef Olivia Ostrow

Chef Olivia Ostrow opens up about her life candidly, unfiltered & unapologeticly. From milking cows on a kibbutz in Israel to boldly making her mark in the hospitality word & her new Kosher Miami Beach Club. Olivia takes us on her fearless journey—from the trauma in her life that she turned into triumph, to the “country club” housewife life she left behind for a life of authenticity to pursue her passions. She’s bold, beautiful, brilliant, hilarious and no topic is off-limits— she teaches us how to actually pronounce those intimidating French luxury brands, and she proves that being a female Jewish restaurant owner doesn’t mean playing by anyone’s rules but her own.Compliments to the chef. Merci beaucoup Olivia.
