Chef Nolle Bond on air conditioning and Walt Disney
It was air conditioning, of all things, that brought Nolle Bond into the kitchen.
“I used to live by Grinders, and I didn’t have air conditioning. So I would have a few cheap PBRs, some tots and sit in the air conditioning,” Bond says. “After a while, I just started working there.”
Bond, 32, entered a kitchen that was literally about to enter prime time — a few months after he started the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives episode featuring Grinders ran on the Food Network. And he discovered that he loved the heat as much as the A/C.
