Malyna Si is Florida's first female chef with a Michelin Star, and the road to getting it wasn't simple or easy. But somehow, at the end of an 16-hour shift, she'd still manage to make herself a 3-course dinner at home. And she's never yet had boxed mac and cheese...

In this conversation, she tells us what keeps her in the industry, what makes it hard to stay, and how she climbed her way from cleaning a dairy production plant to the top of Florida's cooking scene.

Since recording, Malyna has also featured on America's Culinary Cup! You can find it on Hulu, Amazon Prime, CBS, and more!
