Munchies: Cal Elliott
Vložit
- čas přidán 26. 02. 2013
- Rye's decor could be described as "prohibition chic" with cocktails to match, and food that one could call "fucking amazing." All of this is the product of Cal Elliott, Rye's chef/owner. Cal's persona is Peter Pan meets Rip Torn, with a penchant for the Mother Sauces. When not getting drunk at his own restaurant after the night's service, Cal likes to head to neighboring restaurant Samurai Mama for Udon noodles and Jameson shots. In this episode of Munchies, Cal attempts to make braised short rib grilled cheeses with Taleggio and frisee after having the equivalent of 10 shots of whiskey.

Something about Cal is soo refreshing; his attitude, approach, and outlook are genuine and it shows.
Chris Mcquade i totally agree man, beautiful approach. Rye is definitely on the to do list
Cal is the real deal. Dude doesn't talk any bullshit, cooks good as fuck food, and gets completely smashed by the end of the night like a true Munchies chef. What a savage.
this guy is great, he seems like a legitimately good guy, and i'm so glad for him that he gets to pursue his passion as a career, but i also feel sad for him because he doesn't really get to enjoy himself like he did this day. Like in the beginning of the episode he looked so damn exhausted as if he hadn't slept for a year. Hope things get a little easier for him.
groupjapan That's what you look like when you are an alcoholic.
Ishmael3261 He isn't an alcoholic, he said that he rarely goes out and drink.
Then you missed quite a bit, watch it again.
Ishmael3261 Probably did, have 3 screens not really focused when it gets boring.
That's called ADD.................
His opening speech in the beginning before the Munchies title basically explains why this guy is one of the best chefs around. Period.
Easily the best episode I've seen because this guy is genuine, seems like a really good dude!
+Cenotaff best pizza tho. this is a close second for sure
Been working for chef as a server for years. Best boss I could ever ask for. Generous and a hard worker and treats us very well. Shoutout to the Avery Hotel in Boise Idaho!
Cal must be one of the most likable persons I've seen. Mayor respect for the guy's sincerity and humbleness.
i like how in all the vice Munchies they get drunk and make food haha keep the videos coming!!
This guys is too real lol- I cant even handle how awesome this is.
I love this one. Rather than going to a bunch of places showing off, in and out. Not enjoying themselves - they just sat down and eat it. Had fun. Go back
this chef is so laid back and cool mate!
one of those guys that deserves all the success he has
One of the better Munchies I've watched! Wish it was little longer!
The story of how the chef got to where he is, his style of good American food with his ideology of something enjoyable at everyone's price range is why they are successful!
They are true to their restaurant because they are real! Not some cocky hipsters that think their cool because they have a tattoo of carrot on their arm and own a food joint in New York! Down to earth hard working men and women! Wish I lived closer!
Finally a chef on this series that actually gets drunk and doesn't just pretend "yeee let's get waaaasted". Legend
one of my favourite episodes
This dude is awesome. Love him.
Ahhh.. That made me laugh at the end when his drunk ass hugged the owner.
I love VICE so much i go weekly check on any updates. keep up good work
your the only media i know of which shows two sites of every story .
This guy seems like he would be so fun to get shit faced with lol.
The realist munchies episode to date. Props to Cal and Vice
Wow. Very rare. He seems so chill which is so rare.
i think this is one of my fav eps of munchies
my favorite munchies- this episode is so genuine!
by far the best one i love this guy
Very genuine and enjoy the fact that he's not making overly pretentious food. He's accepts that he's a cook and not a snob. Great wholesome cooking as anything more than 5 ingredients what's the point?
"I'd rather not make any money and feel good about what I'm doing." This guy got it all figured out
One of the best Munchies episode ever; great looking food, genuine and down to earth guy, no bull shit. Munchies need to film more episodes like this one.
I've seen almost all the munchies so far, and I still find this one to be my favorite. The chief seems so genuine, and compared with those other over privileged bar and restaurant owners he's a breath of fresh air.
What a great guy. He followed his heart and went for it. All love to you Cal Elliott.
This dude is super chill.
Man this guy is so genuine and his food looks delicious
love this episode
7:10 - had that moment soooo many times -.- lol
I really like this guys philosophy of cooking for everyone and allowing anyone to enjoy a good meal
This is the one munchies episode where I genuinely really enjoyed the chef and actually wanted to go to this guys restaurant, that meatloaf sandwich looks amazing!
10:20 I lost it LOL
This is my favorite munchies yet,that dude looks like someone i'd chill with on the weekend...
Seems like a genuinely nice guy
i love how he only made it to one restaurant, then straight to the kitchen
Cal loooks like Eddie Munster....Because hes real. hes the only real chef Vice has visited. Aside from Chang.
Michael White?
haven't watched em all yet but i agree definitely a lack of down to earth chefs being featured on VICE
which are the ppl VICE SHUD BE seeking out
damn haha this dudes genuine. great episode, and great for him going past the obstacles set before him in the beginning
this is the only episode of munchies that ended with ONE restaurant visit. and this episode made me really extremely sad because the chef is so much like my favorite friend who killed himself last year.
why don't you cry about it.
i cry only when i need something from jesus
Reggie Blinker jesus never existed
amazing. i didn't know that jesus had a last name. i thought he was like bono or sting or prince, you know, he's so famous he dropped the fucking last half.
I love this guy, he reminds me a lot of a friend I have.
Everyday at work I see the head chef making gnocci the exact same way he was making it, haha. I'm hungry now
Ate here when my band stayed in Brooklyn for a few days. Unreal, so good.
cal is so chill.
Ahhahahahaha 10:26 : "That was like a bad pick and roll" Lol Gold!!
"Pick and roll" ? Is that an American expression?
SethHesio Basketball
Ah right! thank you :) totally didn't get the reference much appreciated. How are you?
this guy. is hilarious. enjoyed every moment of this episode.
"That was like a bad pick & roll!"
Hahahaha. That reference.
What a lovely guy. Best to him!
Very humble. I like this guy
love his speech in the beginning
"That was like a bad pick and roll" hahaha classic line
Excellent!
A very humble chef. Wish most chefs were like him.
Excellent episode
Soooo true about drunk cooking. Had the thought in my head, but never really thought about it. Probably because I was drunk.
Love this guy!
hes just straight up hammered.
Love this guy
This man deserves another episode or 3 for sure!
Super! so gut ging es mir auch mal!
really like this guy, sad i moved from new york, maybe next time in town i can try out rye :D
This video made me really happy for no reason.
this is my favourite food show ever
Very very raw chef. Loved this episode. And the chef of Samurai Mama was also very real. True cooks.
I like what I, and only other cooks/chefs, perceive as fucking awesome. This guy totally gets the dedication it takes and appreciates the family that comes with it.
Watching these always makes me hungry....
Hi cal a new friend here.i really like the way you introduced the food.awesome keep up the good work and stay safe!
as an aspiring chef, i love this guy. really is influencing me to become a chef/owner myself
lol the endings great
Love that guy right away.
I love this guy...
Wish more chefs were like this
Oh I love this!!!
Hahaha great guy, great episode!
Mad respect chef!!!
does anyone know where I can get the soundtrack for these eps. Specially the song at the start of this episode? By the way I agree with everyone here who appreciates this Cal's approach to food and the industry. He's awesome. It's definitely inspired me to see if there any places like his and chefs like him here in Auckland, NZ :D thank you VICE!
yeah with everyoone on here dudes really good great episode
He looks like a villain from a Bond movie, but seems like a nicest dude -- MOOOAR EPISODES OF MUNCHIES PLEASE!!!!!
I like this episode! I want to work there haha
love this chef. he was so wasted in the end hahaha
This is my favourite munches by far
Such a honest guy.
Can you guys make a Munchies playlist on your channel page?
Rye is the exact type of restaurant I would love to go to and have as a regular spot, too bad it's closed now
This was awesome!
One of the simplest personalities on Munchies, yet he was just pure fuckin cool.
It was hilarious near the end. I fucking love Munchies from VICE, proper video's.
I am guessing Cal's "ruined" sandwich is utterly delicious. And he seems like an awesome dude.
Does he remind anyone else of Stefon from those Weekend Update sketches on Saturday Night Live? I can't stop giggling now because his haircut and voice are so similar lol
just smiling the whole time!
Just a classic video. 2013 is becoming the past!
This guy is awesome
haHA "Did you just..hypocrite me?"
Ahhaa he's wonderfully drunk at the end.
agreed, small town guy trying to be big city Chef. Love it, totally relate.
This is my favorite munchie.
No hipster bullshit.
It's raw.
awesome as hell
Dude is very respectable
