Eddie Lin, the blogger behind Deep End Dining, risked his stomach on raw chicken and lived to tell about it on Evan Kleiman's Good Food. He began his well-known food blog Deep End Dining around fall 2004. Almost immediately it began to receive critical attention as one of his entries was selected to be in the 2005 food anthology Best Food Writing. Eddie is the author of Lonely Planet's Extreme Cuisine, a guidebook about exotic foods around the globe. His extreme food exploits and essays have been covered by NPR, PBS, the Los Angeles Times, OC Weekly, BlackBook Magazine, Food & Wine, the Daily Telegraph, the Guardian, USA Today, and others. Eddie was an on-air contributor and segment producer for KCRW's long-running Good Food and has appeared on Visiting with Huell Howser, Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern, Freakiest Foods, Eat St., KABC Eyewitness News's The Man Who Eats Everything, and CSI: NY. Eddie Lin was a guest judge on Top Chef Masters, among other popular tv food competition shows, such as MasterChef. Eddie's ideal job as a tasting judge kept him busy traveling the country to vet hopeful cooking contestants for shows like The Taste with Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson, Chef Ludo Lefebvre, and Chef Marcus Samuelsson. He also appeared on Knife Fight in 2013 alongside Top Chef Ilan Hall. His long ago attempted YouTube series, Kamikaze Kitchen, featured unsuspecting chefs who are ambushed at their restaurants with a "mystery ingredient" and usually it's something you would not find on the menu, like alligator. Eddie is currently a contributor to LA Taco and LA Times, covering restaurants and interesting food stories around the city. He's also writing his food memoir titled All You Can Eat Hell, a requiem for a restaurant, about his family's failed all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet in Houston, Texas and his coming of age exile into lonely adulthood as the number one son of Taiwanese immigrants. Eddie and I have dined together at some of the best vegan restaurants around LA for the past nine years. Our favorite dates happen to take place at vegan Chinese restaurants in particular. We also like to go have dim sum in LA's famed San Gabriel neighborhood where the most authentic Chinese restaurants are found. And what's Eddie's favorite dim sum dish? Chicken feet. So how am I, a plant-based vegan chef and host of the Plantfull Life podcast, with this crazy guy? Well, I'll let you listen into this episode to find out. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/plantfull/support

In the sequel to #8: "Jimmy's Request," Richard (the mustachio'd pickle a.k.a. "The Peeklay" or «The Picklé») travels to Paris, France in search of Jimmy, his nephew, the cornichon — and to learn a thing or two about the culture & history of «les cornichons» along the way. With help from Michelin star-awarded chef, Ludo Lefebvre. Richard's Famous Food Podcast is made by Richard Parks III. Follow on Instagram & Twitter @richardsfamous and @reechardparks.

As is common with a lot of small businesses, Gabe Kennedy and his co-founder Hudson Gaines-Ross launched Plant People with a few thousand dollars in their pockets. With unique individual backgrounds and a shared interest in holistic healing after both endured serious injuries, they decided to create Plant People. But in opening up the conversation with Gabe about Plant People on this episode of #WeGotGoals, I quickly got the sense we were going to be talking about much more than CBD droplets, capsules and balms. For Gabe, using natural, holistic methods to heal after his spine injury was a no-brainer. But throughout his long road to recovery, he realized just how unique his story was. His parents are herbalists and acupuncturists, so Gabe grew up around the concept of natural medicine. And his love for natural, delicious, home-cooked food had him cooking at age 14. He graduated at the top of his class at the Culinary Institute of America. But where does that lead one to starting a business like Plant People? A simple sentence to describe the business, Gabe says, is a "CBD company" - but he continues in the episode to explain how and why Plant People is much more than that. "We really are here to celebrate the power of all plants. We're operating at this intersection of plant wellness and modern science." That's why you'll find Plant People in more places than just online. You'll find Gabe and Hudson hosting dinners utilizing their CBD drops in their dinner menus. And trust me, when you hear Gabe talk about a mindfully crafted lavender sorbet dessert infused with CBD, your next move will be Googling "Plant People dinner event calendar." And do you know what we didn't even get around to talking about on the episode? Gabe's impressive resume as chef - he won ABC's The Taste (where he was named "America’s best undiscovered cook" by Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson, Marcus Samuelsson and Ludo Lefebvre), and served as the private chef for an impressive list of people, including the Clinton family. All that is to say, Gabe is up to a lot right now and has his eyes set firmly on the future. Another pillar to Plant People's foundation is for advocacy and education. There is still a lot to learn about this industry, but Gabe's excited about its potential to give back to the land and the economy as it grows. "Hemp has the power to be regenerative," Gabe says. "[We're] excited to see what systems we support as the industry grows." And as for personal big goal on the horizon? He's thinking big for Plant People but sticking with small, attainable goals for his daily life. "I need to meditate, take care of my mind, move my body a little bit, I want to listen to some great music, I need to get a little bit of sunshine and I need to have some awesome food. If I can do those things every day, it's a pretty great day." Intrigued by Plant People and want to try it out for yourself?

San Diego joined the world's dining elite Monday, when the city's first Michelin star was awarded to the luxurious Carmel Valley restaurant Addison. At a ceremony for the inaugural Michelin Guide California in Huntington Beach, which was attended by a who's who of the state's top chefs and restaurateurs, Addison executive chef and San Diego native William Bradley accepted the illustrious award for the 13-year-old bastion of fine dining at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar. “We're just so happy and so honored to be part of such a prestigious guide representing San Diego and Addison. It's just amazing,” Bradley said after the awards were given out. “It was surreal. To be standing on that stage with that backdrop and with all those amazing chefs. It's a dream.” Among the celebrated chefs in attendance were José Andrés, Michael Cimarusti, Michael Mina, Niki Nakayama, and Ludo Lefebvre. A total of 90 California restaurants were awarded stars at Monday's reveal event, 69 with one star (for “High quality cooking, worth a stop”), 14 with two stars (“Excellent cuisine, worth a detour”) and seven with three stars (“Exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey”). Among the three-star recipients, all were repeat winners; no new three-star designations were given.

In this week's missive from the Fortress of Proopitude, Greg and Jennifer lecture on lardon, Ludo Lefebvre and Leon Redbone.

Sara talks to talented food writer Esther Tseng (Eater, Vice, LA Times and more) about life as the daughter of Taiwanese immigrants in New Berlin, Wisconsin (that's "New BER-lin," by the way); why she walked away from a full scholarship for violin studies at the University of Wisconsin in favor of UCLA; the science of cheese curds; pop-up restaurants; why she doesn't cook a whole lot; and how much you'd have to pay her to move back to her hometown. Food-oriented praise is lavished upon Chef Ludo Lefebvre, artist/author/producer/songwriter/musician/food dude Questlove, writer Lucas Kwan Peterson, and comedian/TV host Karl Hess.

The feast is in the first bite. I came across this phrase recently listening to a science program on the radio about how human taste buds function. It was scientifically explained that in fact with each subsequent bite of food, there is a diminishing sensory enjoyment insofar as the taste explosion in your mouth. So in this season of joyful excess, we can reassure ourselves that the feast is indeed in the first bite. INTERVIEWS: Start Time - 7' 30 seconds: Nina Métayer, Executive Pastry Chef, Café Pouchkine Start Time - 25' 49 seconds: Chef Ludo Lefebvre of Trois Mec, Los Angeles This 2018 holiday season here in Paris will go down in history as the Yellow Christmas. This month of Saturday protests of the GiletsJaunes, the Yellow Vests, here in Paris have marked the season with closed shops and whole shopping districts such as the Champs Elysees, Saint Germain des Prés, and even here, in the normally bustling Marais, shuttering their doors and boarding their windows. But perhaps the timing is truly right on message, because when many of us can celebrate a time of plenty and abundance, with joyful family members, lots of good things to eat and drink, and happy times all around, It's important to remember that for an ever-growing segment of the French population, indeed the world's population, this is not necessarily the case. Not during the holidays, and not during the rest of the year.

Today’s show explores terroir — the flavor of place. Discovering the wild flavors of your local bioregion is a smart and ecologically interactive way to intimately engage with your place and add context to the story of your food. Pascal Baudar — wild food researcher and a self-styled “culinary alchemist” — joins us to share his unique and inspiring niche in the wild food world: wildcrafted terroir. Based in southern California with access to many different ecosystems (mountain, desert, chaparral, and seashore) and 700+ different wildcrafted ingredients, Pascal is a brazen wild food experimenter who combines his knowledge of plants and his local landscape with the innovative techniques of a master food preserver and chef. Pascal was named one of the 25 most influential tastemakers in L.A. by Los Angeles magazine, and his locally sourced wild ingredients and unique preserves have made their way into the kitchens of such star chefs as Ludo Lefebvre, Josiah Citrin, Ari Taymor, Michael Voltaggio, Chris Jacobson and Niki Nakayama. He is the author of The New Wildcrafted Cuisine, an incredible book of culinary concepts and ideas featuring recipes and preservation techniques using a local terroir. Pascal is here to change how we think about wild food. He invites us to experiment with the wild ingredients in our own local bioregion and shares some examples of how he creatively crafts wild cuisine from the landscape he calls home. You’ll hear the wide variety of uses for wild sage, how he makes his own salt and how he uses insects in his wild ferments. Pascal’s work is rooted in love of place, and I hope he inspires you to infuse more local wild terroir into your own wild food plate.

_ Snacky Tunes _ is coming at you from a parking lot in LA this week as host Darin Bresnitz is on the scene with Chefs Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo of Animal, Son of a Gun, Jon and Vinny’s, Trois Mec, Petit Trois, Trois Familia, & Helen’s.  Jon and Vinny met in culinary school 15 years ago, where they share they first thought about opening a restaurant together. Chatting about opening animal, a wildly successful restaurant in Los Angeles, their next restaurant, Son of a Gun, a seafood-focused spot that is an homage to the fish shacks they grew up with in Florida, the duo have also partnered with Chef Ludo Lefebvre for delicious destinations. In the second half of the show, Greg welcomes Todd Goldstein AKA Arms to the studio talking his long history with Snacky Tunes and what he’s been up to since 2009! Todd has been writing and recording music under the name ARMS since 2004, which is a pretty long time if you think about it. His songs are sinewy and guitar-forward, with a wild energy and an sad core. His lyrics are sly, aching sketches written in language both more oblique and more direct than normal speech. There have been two ARMS full-length albums—the noisy, melancholic Kids Aflame (2008) and its fancied-up widescreen sequel Summer Skills (2011)—a handful of singles and EPs, a covers album, and 2013’s rollicking EP2. The 3rd and latest ARMS album—a collection of songs recorded with longtime drummer Tlacael Esparza, called Patterns—will be released in the spring of 2016. Notably, ARMS has shared the stage with Passion Pit, Walkmen, Beach House, White Rabbits, The Long Winters, A Place to Bury Strangers, Japandroids, Hospitality, Caveman, Asobi Seksu, and more. Stay tuned for his acoustic set! “Yes, local is great and it’s awesome and we love it but let’s just try to make the most delicious food… we don’t beat people over the head with it.” [9:00] –Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo on Snacky Tunes

Welcome to episode 8 of CreateCast! Today's guest is Chef Ludo Lefebvre from ABC's The Taste as well as his award-winning Los Angeles restaurant Trois Mec. In this interview we talk about Chef Ludo's early life in France, how he got started cooking, what ingredients he's excited about, and even what dishes he thinks are essential for young chefs. This interview was recorded live in his restaurant, so there is a lot of great banter between Ludo and his staff - he even has to threaten them with pushups at one point!

Ep. 126 - This week's guest practically invented the pop up restaurant in Los Angeles with his LudoBites dinner series, before opening Trois Mec last year with former podcast guests Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo.  Since then Trois Mec has been named Best Restaurant in Los Angeles for two years running by L.A. Weekly, and was just named one of the 38 Best Restaurants in America by Eater. He's also one of the mentors on ABC's The Taste alongisde Anthony Bourdain, Marcus Samulesson and Nigella Lawson. We talk to Ludo about the music he listened to growing up in France, the great musicians he's gotten to cook for, and the guitar lessons he got from Michelle Branch.  And of course we ask him about the foie gras ban that was just lifted in California.  A limited edition 10th Anniversary Edition of his first cookbook CRAVE was just released.

With his new book being released next week, Ludo Bites: Recipes and Stories from the Pop-Up Restaurants of Ludo Lefebvre, we were able to visit with him, and eat some favorite dishes from his many pop-ups at a recent event at Quiksilver in Fashion Island, Newport Beach. We also were given a chance to screen a new short film that Ludo appeared in for Quiksilver titled "Chef and The Sea" which was filmed several months ago when Ludo and Krissy hosted their pop-up in the Big Island of Hawaii.
