42: Chefs Ludo Lefebvre & Nina Métayer - Holidays 2018 The Feast Is In The First Bite

Paris GOOD food + wine Paris' premier food+wine podcast. It's the first ever English language radio show/podcast about the city's food and wine scene broadcast from and produced in Paris, France. Hosted by Paige Donner

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.
