Award-winning chef Emeril Lagasse became a national figure as a host of several popular cooking shows. But in New Orleans, he's known for his flagship restaurant "Emeril's." It's been an institution in the city for more than 30 years. His restaurant has undergone some big changes thanks to the new young chef at its helm — E.J. Lagasse.

His son is awfully young, but appears to be talented. This will be interesting to watch.

Any chance of getting the tv show back? Hard to believe it’s been over 20 years since he was on tv.

Chef Emeril Lagasse on Passing the Torch to His Son


so will his son immediately change all his recipes from 3 cups of pepper to 3 teaspoons of pepper?

most of his recipes are half food and the other half is pure pepper, because yankees think cajun means dump in pepper until it makes you puke.

go check out his recipe for emerils essence, its straight pepper with maybe a teaspoon of other seasonings

every recipe he has you better ignore what he says about pepper and i love really hot spicey foods

Hopefully he opens Delmonico in some form or fashion.

Emeril never struck me as the restaurateur type, more of can cook and capitalize.

I worked with EJ on the line. dude was not even out of high school. I'm hoping his 4 years in school helped him out. Talented, for sure. I just hope hes got a little more awareness about the kind of people he'll be managing and loses the "my dad is Emeril" shite.

I've dined at Delmonico and had a fabulous meal, but also eaten at NOLA many times, have never been to Emeril's or Meril. The Chef's counter at NOLA was one of my go to places when alone in NO. Miss Hay's stuffed chicken wings were da bomb. My new spot is the bar at Fins or raw bar counter at Peche.

Emeril’s brand is so iconic that his son could F it all up and Emeril could step back in and they wouldn’t be hurt too much. Why not give him a shot?

Emeril Lagasse was 23 when he became the chef at Commander's Palace in New Orleans.
He took over for Paul Prudhomme.
