In "The Bear," it takes nearly two full seasons for Ebon Moss-Bachrach's Richie to find his way into the kitchen, ironic for a show whose main stage is in the back of the house. "Richie never cooks," Moss-Bachrach says. "At first he was a disruptive person, telling stories in the back. And then he found his place in the front of the house, and they don't really want him in the kitchen."
So when Moss-Bachrach got the chance to jump into the kitchen for a new collaboration with Johnnie Walker, curating recipes with the show’s culinary producer, Courtney Storer, he jumped at it. With the exception of one day on set, where he snuck into the kitchen to watch Storer teach Ayo Edibiri how to make an omelette for a Season 1 storyline (“I tried to work on an omelette and get it right”), he rarely got the chance to work with Storer.
