It took her over a decade to get off that station! During that time, Child’s “The French Chef” changed America’s taste in food. And so we ask: What makes French cuisine so French? The Food Chain Radio Show - Podcast with Michael Olson hosts Executive Chef Avram Samuels for a conversation about being a classically-trained chef of French cuisine. Topics include the essential difference between French and Italian cuisines; the difference between classical and modern French cuisine; and how a classically-trained French chef combines his artistry with the business of feeding Silicon Valley techies business banquets.
