This week on Happy Half Hour, co-hosts Troy Johnson and Jackie Bryant sit with one of San Diego’s most influential chefs, Carl Schroeder. After years at the helm of Market Restaurant + Bar, Schroeder has sold his shares and is stepping back. We talk about the glory days of Market, the early 2000s when “farm-to-table” actually meant something, his start in storied San Francisco kitchens, and why he’s finally ready to trade the pressure of a fine-dining kitchen for time with family (and maybe a pool float).
