from Three Food Memories · host Savva Savas

"I splash around fish sauce willy-nilly, like cologne" - Warwick Thornton In this episode of Three Food Memories, you'll meet film director Warwick Thornton.  You'll know him for his magnificent and heart-wrenching storytelling in movies such as Samson & Delilah, The New Boy, and his latest film Wolfram. What you may not know is that he is an undeniable, dinky-di foodie. So much so that he chose not to share food memories in advance of his chat with Savva, but instead invited Savva into a conversation led by instinct, feeling, and an intense hatred for fruit in savoury food...with the exception of one particular snack. What snack? You'll have to listen in to find out.  On the menu: ethnic culinary inspiration at IGAs, discovering Asian cuisine after Cyclone Tracy, and a three year journey to an epiphany about chocolate! Send us Fan MailTo find out more about the project and Savva - head to threefoodmemories.comInsta - @savvasavas @threefoodmemoriesEmail us at [email protected], we'd love to hear from you!  TFM is produced and edited by Lauren McWhirter with original music by Russell Torrance.
