It's Linsanity on A Taste of the Past!! Tune in as Linda discusses the cuisine and culture of Taiwan with Jessica Chien and Joanne Liu, freelance pastry chefs. Learn the differences between China, Japan and Taiwan when it comes to food and hear what makes Taiwanese cuisine stand out from the rest. From their bountiful produce and livestock options to the creative cultural dishes, listeners will come away with a new found knowledge and respect for the food from this Asian-Pacific island. This program was sponsored by Whole Foods Market.
"What makes Taiwanese food unique is that the country is self sustaining. There's plentiful amounts of agriculture, seafood, poultry, pork and beef. In mainland China, there are provinces where you can only have one type of vegetable or livestock. It's not as bountiful as Taiwan."
--freelance pastry chef, author and food blogger Jessica Chien on A Taste of the Past

This week on Taste Matters, Mitchell Davis is joined by William Drew, editor of Restaurant Magazine, the publication that organizes the World's 50 Best Restaurants list. Tune in to learn more about how polling works and what the list means for restaurants lucky enough to appear on it. Hear why William thinks taste and flavor is once again rising above novelties, gimmicks and experience in restaurants. This program was sponsored by Whole Foods Market.
"Being on the list is an affirmation rather than an end goal. The reality is that it's an extremely effective business tool. As soon as a restaurant gets on the list, it always means it will now be full starting the next day."
"Perhaps in recent years [taste and flavor] has been overtaken by worthiness or providence of where the food is coming from, or trickery and theater. Those things are important and can play a role, but it seems taste and flavors are back at the top of the agenda for chefs and restaurants and that's where it should be."
--William Drew, editor of Restaurant Magazine on Taste Matters

This week on Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy Carbone has a great group of NYC beer guys including Jim Barnes from Pretty Things Beer & Ale Project, Jay Steinhauer of American Beer Distributing and Chris O'Leary from Brew York, New York. The crew is also joined by the authors of "Beer for Dummies", Steve Ettlinger & Marty Nachel. Tune in as they chat about everything from "extreme" beer to historic beer and reflect on some of their favorite brews at the moment. Learn more about beer tastings, kosher beer, home brewing and more on the best beer radio show in the world! This program was sponsored by GreatBrewers.com.
"When you do a reference book in the 'dummies' format, your job is largely to ask questions and wonder. I'm a completly befuddled consumer, so I'm a good guy for that job. We also have an obligation to teach the history of beer in this format. It opened up a whole new world for me, I wasn't too familiar with the world on beer when I started this book."
--Steve Ettlinger, co-author of Beer for Dummies on Beer Sessions Radio
"Just because you have a few tables and a concrete patio, that doesn't make you a beer garden."
--Chris O'Leary of Brew York, New York on Beer Sessions Radio
