When a student of former high school teacher Bob Laffranchi asked him how cheese is made, Bob decided to find out. Since then, the self-taught cheese maker has been running Loleta Cheese Factory, which makes 5,000 pounds of cheese daily using local milk. Guy’s favorite? The spicy habanero Jack.
On this special, hourlong trip, Guy's taking us on a tour of Ferndale, Calif., which is not only his hometown, but one of many small towns in Humboldt County with righteous food and a whole lotta flair. There's the generations-old apple orchard with a special place in Guy's heart, to the local's watering hole where Guy first experienced work life in the kitchen; the old-school butcher and the artisan cheese maker. This is a super chef's hometown tour you won't wanna miss!
