A great podcast not just about good food, but more importantly the great people who grow, harvest, cook, serve, and enjoy food. Host Evan Kleiman clearly loves the peoole, places, foods, and stories she features. And for people in the LA Region, there is a bit of a local focus that would be even more rewarding (I live on the opposite side of the country, and this is still one of my favorite podcasts).

Description

Everything you wanted to know about good cooking and good eating from LA chef, author, radio host and restaurateur Evan Kleiman.
