Hsu joined "On Second Thought" to discuss his culinary inspirations and the world of reality TV cooking."On Second Thought" host Virginia Prescott speaks with Ronald Hsu.

Hsu also shared his experiences as a young chef at Le Bernardin in New York City and talked about planning his own restaurant opening in Atlanta, Lazy Betty, in early 2019.

"I really feel like an underrepresented part of Atlanta's culinary scene is how global it is," Hsu said, pointing to Buford Highway and Duluth. "This [Netflix show] is a way for me to showcase a different side of Atlanta cuisine."
