A show about great food and the people who love to make & eat it. Every week, we dig into a different dish, meal, ingredient, cuisine, or piece of food media, exploring the history & culture around it, sharing favorite recipes, and learning from our wonderful guests. The only rule? You've gotta love it. After all, there's no such thing as bad food.
This week, hosts Tom Zalatnai (@tomzalatnai) and Teffer Adjemian (@tefferbear) recap our recent trip to New York City! Bagel sandwiches! Tahini iced coffee! Oatmeal lace cookies! Dumplings! Hand-pulled noodles!...
