How a TikTok-Famous Chef Feeds a Sorority | On the Job | NYT Cooking

Video Description

Meet Kevin Ashton, a sorority house chef responsible for feeding the 28 students who live at the Pi Beta Phi house at the University of Nevada, Reno, during the school year. But if you’re on TikTok, Ashton may already be a familiar face: He has nearly 5 million followers on the platform, where he shares videos of the food he makes for students as well as candid details about his life, including his struggle with cancer. For him, this online community and content creation is “therapy.” “On the Job With Priya Krishna” is a series about labor and the people who shape what we eat and how we eat, and whose jobs often go unseen. ------------------------------------------ Download the Cooking app for daily dinner picks, helpful tools, and even more videos: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nyt-cooking/id911422904 VISIT NYT COOKING: https://cooking.nytimes.com/ SUBSCRIBE to NYT COOKING: https://nyti.ms/3FfKmfb A paid subscription gets you full access to our recipes, daily inspiration and a digital Recipe Box.
