Our taste tells a story. What we order, the ingredients we covet, the restaurants we go back to, and the meals we never forget often reveal something deeper about our values and sense of self. By Reservation Only (presented by KIBO) uses food as the starting point for conversations that move beyond the plate into creativity, ambition, heritage, relationships, and belonging. Through intimate conversations with leading voices across hospitality, media, lifestyle, and beyond, host Hannah Kim explores the influences that shape a person’s point of view and identity in each episode.
