Panera Bread is a glorious location. Have you had its mac and cheese? Which is liquid gold. What about taking in it in a bread bowl? Carbs on carbs have never ever tasted improved. So it’s no shock that the café’s alumni take their former position of perform somewhat severely and none additional so than Ramy Youssef. Youssef directed the fourth episode of The Bear this year, “Honeydew,” in which Marcus would make a vacation to Copenhagen in get to learn from a pastry chef. While prepping for the episode, Youssef and Lionel Boyce, who plays Marcus, studied at Noma, which is largely considered the greatest cafe in the earth. “I saved telling all people at Noma that I experienced worked at a cafe ahead of,” Youssef told GQ just lately. “Which I experienced, but I experienced worked at Panera Bread when I was 16. It was just truly humorous to be at Noma and communicate about my expertise at Panera.” Dependent on his collaborators’ responses, “kept telling” is truly the operative phrase in that sentence. “That man, somebody, has to end him,” Boyce mentioned of Youssef. “He’s out of control.” Even Will Poulter, who guest-starred in the episode as Luca, had one thing to say about it: “I listened to him inform at the very least 5 people today that he worked at Panera Bread about the study course of our two-day shoot.” Subsequent time we have to have a soup-and-sandwich specific, we’re all heading to Ramy Youssef’s area.
