Les restaurants ouvrent et ferment, c'est la valse des enseignes et c'est aussi la valse du vocabulaire. Déjà, on n'ouvre plus des restaurants, mais des concepts, tu t'assois n'importe où, où ça vient d'ouvrir et on te dit, " Vous connaissez le concept ? " Et là, c'est souvent le début de la novlangue locale… ---Fanny Gillard et Carlo de Pascale voyagent dans l'univers culinaire de notre style de vie rock n' roll.

Send us a textIn this episode, we dive into a controversial take: fine dining isn't worth the hype — or the price tag.Sandra and I recently visited a so-called “authentic Italian” fine dining restaurant, and let's just say… it was anything but.The service was polished but clueless, the Bolognese tasted like grocery-store jarred sauce, the wine list was marked up five times retail, and they even tried to upsell us on a membership just to get reasonable wine prices.Oh — and they rushed us out in 45 minutes while calling it “a luxury experience.”Valet parking and white tablecloths don't equal quality. We talk about:

Giles is still sleeping apart from Esther because of his snoring. But he is not fully reconciled to the new arrangement. The subject hit a nerve as many listeners have been in touch with ideas to improve the situation – from wired jaws, wedge pillows or intriguingly a trip to Newcastle. After Giles composes himself, he considers a few of the options. In more upbeat new Parisians are being offered the chance to win a burial spot next to the likes of Oscar Wilde, Jim Morrison or Edith Piaf in the famous cemeteries of the Père-Lachaise, Montparnasse and Montmartre. So where would Giles and Esther like to be buried?Lastly, a new charge has started to appear on some restaurant bills – an admin charge. What is it, why is it there and does it mark the end of fine dining…? And as always please do get in touch: noidea@thetimes.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In episode four of our five-part series spotlighting the chefs behind Visit Vacaville's Farm to Table Dinner 2025, host Alyssa Pardini sits down with Chef Matt Andrews—owner and operator of Frosty's, and a culinary talent whose heart is as big as his flavors.Hailing from the small Northern California town of Dixon, Matt's love for food was sparked in his grandmother's kitchen, where simple, honest flavors first captured his imagination. A graduate of the California Culinary Academy, he honed his craft under renowned chefs including Wolfgang Puck and Kerry Simon, blending comfort food with the fresh creativity of California cuisine.Family. Flavor. Passion.

It arrived in the hands of a waiter, who moved with the lightness and grace of a ballet dancer across the restaurant floor. It had a fleshy colour. A creamy, brown kind of hue. It was inflated to the size of a balloon, but the shape was slightly less uniform. “Asparagus,” said the waiter. “Prepared in this pig's bladder.” I don't know how many bladder-based meals you've had in your life but that was a first for me. The asparagus, I should say, was absolutely delicious. But not so amazing that I personally felt compelled to give up roasting food in my oven in favour of bladder cooking, from then on. I was dining at Eleven Madison Park. It's an extraordinary fine-dining restaurant at the foot of Madison Ave in New York, just across the way from the Flatiron Building. Tom Brady had his penthouse across the road. I once saw Rupert Murdoch walking his dog in the park outside. And the food at ELP is as fancy as the neighbours. As a winner of three Michelin Stars, Eleven Madison Park is widely considered one of the very best restaurants in the world. The Michelin Star system is certainly an effective marketing tool. It has been with me. I've sought out other Michelin-starred restaurants in New York, including when Kiwi Matt Lambert won a star for his work at The Musket Room. I've dined in Bilbao, where they have a higher concentration of Michelin-starred restaurants than anywhere on Earth. I've lined up early and eaten at what was the world's cheapest Michelin starred restaurant – dim sum in Hong Kong. As much as anything, I've treated eating at most of these places as an experience. A rare treat. Not so much as a source of nourishment, but as food for memories. As the Michelin judges turn their attention to our restaurant scene, I just hope they don't come here expecting the absolute finest of fine-dining. I appreciate they look at a range of restaurants, but for a few exceptions, la-de-dah's not really us. We don't do fussy. We don't do fiddly. We do a more casual, relaxed style that befits our culture. Really good ingredients cooked well and more often than not, designed to be shared. It's funny, as incredible as my night was at Eleven Madison Park, the single best meal of my life wasn't at a Michelin-starred restaurant. There were no white tablecloths, no sommelier-curated wine list. It was in tiny, legally questionable firetrap of an apartment in Paris, that my best mate called his home. I'd flown in with another mate the day before, and the three of us had gone for a long jog by the Seine to try and kick the jetlag. On the way back home, we stopped by one of the local farmers' markets and picked up some gooey cheese, tomatoes, salami, and baguette. We sprawled out on the floor of the apartment, cutting off hunks of each and stuffing them into our mouths. It was heaven. And that's the thing about the best meals. Ultimately, it's not the truffle mousse or the poached dodo's egg or even the inflated pig's bladder that makes the magic, it's the people. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Turns out eating 3.5 tabs of LSD, 1.5 grams of mushrooms, a couple weed edibles and then going into a fine dining restaurant may not be the best idea...

【主播的话】这期节目我们一起来聊聊吃饭这件事。食物在我们生活如此频繁的出现，大部分人都在意食物是否美味，但很多时候如何选择食物也关系到我们想要一个怎样的世界。今年十月瑞典斯德哥尔摩多食物论坛转型大会（EAT）上，柳叶刀的行星饮食法（PHD）2.0 正式发布，报告推崇一种更健康和可持续化的饮食方式，科学家们提出如果全球推广PHD饮食法，每年可预防1500万成年人过早死亡（该估算未计入该饮食法对降低肥胖率的影响，因此实际效果可能更为显著。）。这一份饮食方案允许适度食用肉类，如果遵循这一建议可在2050年前将推动全球变暖的食品相关排放量削减一半。报告的研究人员也指出，当前全球三分之一的温室气体排放源自食品系统，若不改变全球饮食模式，气候危机将无法得到控制。本期嘉宾张一是一位致力发掘国内生态食材，并依据行星食谱标准制作精致料理（Fine Dinning）的厨师，她在巴黎和东京接受了严格的厨师训练，她是中国区圣培露青年厨师大赛首位女性冠军和可持续奖项双料得主。后来，她选择回到中国，在隐居避世的山林间开一家生态厨房，思考如何用中国在地食材制作更美味、健康，也对自然更友好的美食。在这一期节目里，她和我们分享了像《东京大饭店》一般的学厨经历，选择成为厨师的故事以及她对于做饭这件事的思考。【本期主播】若含：微博@_R若含【本期嘉宾】张祎：2022 - 2023 年圣培露青年厨师大赛中国区总决赛冠军，中国区首位女性冠军和可持续奖项双料得主【本期剧透】00:10 中国首位女性冠军厨师测评瑞典美食：“味道一般”05:38 为 700 人制作中式芋头酥，酥皮擀了一个行李箱13:13 童年发誓“绝对不干厨师”，到从工业设计转行投身精致料理19:07 日厨房文化差异：法国人很吵闹，日本人更细节25:19 全球 Fine Dining 潮流为何从法国转向北欧？30:34 精致料理厨师如同艺术家，制作菜品也是在创作艺术35:51 家庭做饭，如何做到更少浪费“零厨余”？39:27 中国饮食结构中，肉类与碳水为什么逐渐过量？43:47 中国餐饮与美食，为何在国际上仍处于边缘位置？48:49 在男性主导的后厨里，女性要学会捍卫自己的权利52:16 一位“作品人格”的厨师：和人交往扭扭捏捏，讲到菜品“重拳出击”01:00:14 好好做饭，好好吃饭，世界也好好和平【相关阅读】张一在EAT大会上制作的芋头酥行星饮食建议（PHD）PHD饮食法倡导以植物性食物为主的灵活饮食模式，具体包括：水果和蔬菜——每日至少五份全谷物——每日三至四份坚果——每日一份豆类（豆子、豌豆、扁豆）——每日一份乳制品——每日一份牛奶、酸奶或奶酪鸡蛋——每周三至四枚鸡肉——每周两份鱼类——每周两份红肉——每周一份东京大饭店グランメゾン東京首播时间：2019年10月20日由TBS制作的美食题材电视剧，由冢原亚由子、山室大辅、青山贵洋执导，黑岩勉编剧，日本著名演员木村拓哉主演。该剧讲述了法餐厨师尾花夏树(木村拓哉饰)为打造世界最棒的米其林三星餐厅"Grand Maison 东京"而努力奋斗的故事。剧中菜品由米其林三星餐厅 Quintessence 监制。主厨的餐桌Chef's Table由《寿司之神》导演 David Gelb 执导的美食纪录片系列，记录了全球知名主厨的厨房生活和烹饪哲学，每集聚焦一位世界级主厨，讲述其美食理念和人生故事。安东尼·波登：未知之旅Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown 首播时间：2013年4月14日是由美国著名美食探险家安东尼·波登主持的旅游美食纪录片节目。该节在美国CNN电视台首播，将美食、旅行和文化深度结合。安东尼·波登走访世界各地，与不同阶层、年龄的当地人边吃边聊，在闲谈中勾勒出当地的风土人情和文化。节目不仅展示各地特色美食，还深入探讨当地的政治、经济和社会问题。解密厨房Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly作者：安东尼·波登(Anthony Bourdain)安东尼·波登的成名作，也是他最具代表性的非虚构作品。该书英文原版于2000年首次出版。本书以自传体形式揭露餐饮行业潜规则，从他在法国吉隆特首次品尝牡蛎，到在美国普罗温斯敦餐厅当洗碗工，再到纽约彩虹会所厨房工作的跨地域见闻，揭秘餐饮行业的幕后生态。圣培露世界青年厨师大赛(S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy)是由意大利高端矿泉水品牌圣培露(San Pellegrino)赞助举办的全球性青年厨师专业赛事。该大赛面向30岁以下的青年厨师，旨在发掘和培养新一代烹饪人才，为他们提供展示才华的国际舞台。大赛始于2010年代，至今已成功举办五届(截至2024年)，被誉为“厨艺奥林匹克”。新法餐浪潮 (Nouvelle Cuisine)新法餐浪潮是20世纪60年代在法国兴起的一场烹饪革命，旨在反对传统法餐的繁复和厚重，提倡更轻盈、更新鲜的烹饪方式。这场运动对法国美食乃至世界美食产生了深远影响。法国传奇厨师保罗·博古斯 (Paul Bocuse) 是新法餐浪潮的重要发起者和代表人物之一。NomaNoma是位于丹麦哥本哈根的米其林三星级餐厅，由主厨René Redzepi于2003年创立。餐厅名字“Noma”源自丹麦语“nordisk mad”(北欧食物)，体现了其专注于北欧食材的烹饪理念。其以创新的“新北欧料理”运动闻名于世。所有食材只选自北欧如丹麦、冰岛、法罗群岛或格陵兰群岛，讲求原汁原味；每季更换菜单，专注当季食材；拥有自己的发酵实验室，致力于食材的创新和研究。尽管享有全球声誉，但由于经营亏损，Noma于2023年1月宣布将于2024年年底永久关闭其传统餐厅运营。2025年起，Noma将转型为"食品实验室"，专注于产品研发和创新。【本期音乐】Kevin MacLeod - Sad Drunken PartyKevin MacLeod - Night in Venice【节目制作】方改则【Logo设计】刘刘（ins: imjanuary)【互动方式】小红书@不合时宜微博@不合时宜TheWeirdo商务合作可发邮件至 hibuheshiyi@126.com 或微博私信会员计划咨询可添加微信：hibuheshiyi3 或发送邮件至 hibuhehsiyi@gmail.com

So wie Michael Schumacher Formel 1 gefahren ist, so wie Franz Beckenbauer Fußball gespielt hat: Genau so kocht er, sagen Restaurantkritiker. Christian Bau. Der einzige Koch in Deutschland, der seit 20 Jahren durchgehend mit 3 Michelin-Sternen ausgezeichnet ist. Bundesverdienstkreuz. Japanese Cuisine Goodwill Ambassador. Er hat mehr Awards gewonnen als jeder andere. Sein Geheimrezept: Bau hoch 2. Denn er steht mit seiner Ehefrau am Herd: Sarah Bau. Eine absolute Game-Changerin. Denn bis heute gibt es kaum Frauen im Sterne-Business. Die beiden: Sie sind das einzige 3-Sterne-Michelin Ehepaar der Welt. Ich habe sie jetzt in ihrem Restaurant besucht: „Victor's Fine Dining“ im Schloss Berg in Perl, einem echten Schloss aus dem 16. Jahrhundert. Mitten im Dreiländer-Eck Deutschland, Luxemburg, Frankreich. Was du in dieser Folge lernst: Was kompromisslose Qualität wirklich bedeutet! Eine Masterclass über Disziplin und Transformation im High-End-Segment. Was mich am meisten beeindruckt? Dass hier einer Luxus definiert, der selbst aus ärmsten Verhältnissen kommt. Der als Kind nicht mal mit auf Klassenfahrt konnte, weil seine Familie kein Geld hatte. Und heute? Da kocht er für Bundespräsidenten, für Kanzler, für Superstars. Einer der selbst nichts hatte, schenkt der Welt das Schönste und Beste und Leckerste, was es gibt. Jetzt in TOMorrow. Und als TOMorrow-Videopodcast auf YouTube.

True satisfaction comes from God, not the world. In this sermon, we explore Matthew 5:6 and Romans 3, uncovering how faith—rather than our own efforts—brings righteousness. Learn how to hunger for what truly matters and feast on the life-giving promises of God.If life's distractions leave you spiritually hungry, this message will inspire you to seek God first, fill your heart with what truly satisfies, and grow in faith, hope, and righteousness.

(October 22, 2025)Are you ready to pay more for less when it comes to healthcare? President Trump is demanding the Justice Department pay him $230 million. Restaurants are pitching WATER as a ‘fine dining' experience. ‘Throning' is a new Gen Z dating trend.

A great neighborhood spot doesn't become an institution by accident. Chef-owner Miles James joins us for a spirited session, pizza in hand, bourbon on the bar, to share how MJ Pizzeria grew from a tight, open-kitchen concept into a regional favorite poised to double in size without closing a single day. We swap stories from his James at the Mill era, dig into why transparent kitchens build trust, and break down the craft behind that beloved Caesar, the true artichoke dip, and a new spicy chicken pizza with caramelized onions that's begging for a bourbon pairing.Miles opens his playbook on scaling the right way: a dedicated pasta room and sauce room, redundant hot lines for rush-hour consistency, a glass-perfect bar build that turns bottles into storytelling, and a basement wine program designed to hold thousands of bottles. He also gets granular about dough timing, oven tech, and why a modern electric deck may solve the Friday-night heat sink that wood fire alone can't. Through it all, the north star remains clear: keep pizza as the core, elevate the edges, and let hospitality shine through an open kitchen and a present, long-tenured team.We also talk community and location strategy, why MJ's exit-off-the-interstate convenience, ample parking, and Springdale's rapid growth matter, and how private dining, holiday parties, bourbon dinners, and an events coordinator will extend the brand's warmth without crowding the dining room. If you love food culture, restaurant design, or just crave a blistered pie with a thoughtful pour, this one's for you. Subscribe, share with a fellow pizza-and-bourbon fan, and leave a quick review to help more curious listeners find the show.

Chef Kim Floresca's career has taken her from the world's top restaurants to one of L.A.'s most buzzed-about fast-casual projects. After training at the Culinary Institute of America, Kim cooked at fine dining destinations including El Bulli in Spain and Per Se in New York City, and spent time as a private chef before making the leap to Goop Kitchen, the clean-eats concept from Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop. As Vice President of Culinary and Culture, Kim oversees menu development, helping shape Goop Kitchen's flavorful and wellness-driven approach to food. She joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her journey from haute cuisine to health-forward, the skills that carried over from the fine dining world, Goop Kitchen expansion plans, and what Goop Kitchen tricks we can borrow for our own kitchens. Thank you to Square and Ketel One for their support.

From Kitchens to Code: Gregory Willis on Flavor, Innovation & Food TechIn this episode, I sit down with Gregory Willis — founder and president of SenSpire, the company behind Flavor Studio, an operating system powering innovation in the food and ingredient industry. Gregory's journey is anything but linear: from earning four-star reviews as a chef in the competitive San Francisco dining scene, to leading CPG innovation at Chef's Best, to building patent-backed food tech solutions at Treasure8, and now creating software that unifies formulation, sensory testing, CRM, and R&D for some of the world's leading food companies.He's also the author of The Language of Flavor, a book unpacking the creative science of taste, and co-runs a boutique letterpress company with his wife. His career weaves together food, technology, design, and relentless curiosity.We cover:How lessons from fine dining — work ethic, customer service, discipline — shaped his approach to startupsThe creation of Flavor Studio: from flavor-predicting algorithms to a full R&D suite replacing Excel in food labsWhy most food companies still rely on spreadsheets (and how Flavor Studio solves this problem)Scaling Chef's Best into a nationally trusted label and what it taught him about consumer psychologyBehind the scenes of food innovation trends: tinned fish, Dubai chocolate, protein-everything, pickle-flavored snacks, and zero-proof drinksMisconceptions about taste: why aroma is central and the “tongue map” is a mythThe role of memory, design, and emotion in shaping flavor experiencesThe grind of patents and why sustainable food innovation is both slow and necessaryAdvice for young founders entering food/CPG: curiosity, communication, and building resilience against failure

Let's eat, Slackers!This episode is simple: Candy & Restaurants. That's it. That's the topic.I rediscovered one of my all time favorite candy bars, the mighty 5th Avenue and that led us here.I also came across a closed restaurant storefront and started thinking back to the places that 6 year old me would have thought were "fancy" dining. You know, like Sizzler or Ponderosa. Ever have a Ponderosa steak on a Sunday after church? Well I sure did, and it was glorious.There's so much tension in the world - why not just talk about candy and food? Oh, yeah, and tonight I had another seldom talked about candy bar that was a pretty big deal in 1987!

What if the most powerful list in restaurants isn't about food—it's about influence?William Drew runs the World's 50 Best Restaurants, the ranking that can transform a chef's life overnight. But behind the glitz is a story of politics, pressure, and purpose. In this episode, we go deep on how the list really works, who gets included, and what it reveals about the evolving values of the global dining scene. We explore the rise of storytelling over technique, how post-pandemic shifts are impacting who wins, and why French cuisine is no longer the default standard. William doesn't just defend the list—he opens it up. And in doing so, he gives us a rare look into how prestige is created and what it means for the future of restaurants. If you've ever wondered who decides what matters in food—this is that conversation.
