Chef Alfred Ashish has been through it all. Once a a young hotshot cook that was on the come up in Maryland/D.C. food scene, his life took a turn for the worse when addiction entered the picture. It wasn’t until he hit rock bottom that he knew it was time to finally bet on himself. He got clean, made his mental/physical fitness a priority, sharpened his knives and got to work.Now he wants to share his talent and life lessons with everyone around him, whether it’s in one of his restaurants, social channels or television (where he’s becoming a serious culinary presence). Most of all, he’s a chef you’ll want to root for.
