This week on Snacky Tunes Finger on the Pulse have a chat with the ladies of Le Fooding, the New York chapter of a French culinary society that began long ago in France and continues here in New York City. They discuss their upcoming Le Grand Fooding, a culinary showdown inspired by "fightin' woids" uttered by David Chang about San Francisco, who now must (along with other superstar NYC chefs) back up his smack talk against a group of star chefs from San Francisco. This episode also finds the biggest and most intense live performance ever to grace Snacky Tunes, as the 9-piece Midnight Magic performs live and discusses what its like to be Finger on the Pulse's new favorite band. This episode was sponsored by Fairway: like no other market.
