The Port City Plate Podcast presented by Bienville Bites Food Tour. “Panini” Pete Blohm is the celebrity chef of the Mobile area. Pete started Panini Pete's in the French Quarter of Fairhope in 2006. Since then, he has gone to operate multiple restaurants in and around the Mobile area. Favorites like Squid Ink, Sunset Pointe, Ed's Seafood Shed plus a new food hall coming soon to Downtown Mobile and The Waterfront Restaurant coming soon to the former Lake Forest Yacht Club in Daphne.
Hear the origin story of Panini Pete - how he got his name, how he ended up on the Gulf Coast from growing up in Ft. Lauderdale and how he became a celebrity chef. We chatted it up about his beignets and how the lemon became the iconic element. We talked about his world travels, his go-to meal, and much more on this episode that you don't want to miss!
