When you're as fearless in the kitchen as the celebrated culinary daredevil Chef Chris Cosentino, it's no wonder you’ve been considered one of the most talented chefs in the country. The man cooks with GUTS.

"Putting a face to what you eat sometimes opens your eyes a lot. There is more to just skeletal meats." But that wasn't always the case for Cosentino. As a kid, he couldn't even face the kitchen whenever his Grandma Rosalie made tripe. This "hold-nothing-back” creatively brilliant chef, often known for his adventurous “nose to tail” style of cooking, grew up actually loathing the site and smell of what is now a staple on his menu at Cockscomb.
