A nuanced look at a done to death concept

People eating and talking in front of a camera is a very done to death genre. I initially thought this podcast would be another one like that, but I was very much wrong. In addition to a fun interview hosted by a fun guy, there are recipe videos that show you how to make the delicious food on display. This podcast is for pretty much anyone. I recommended it to all my friends and I’d do the same for the person reading this. All in all, Matthew is a great guy, a great chef and a great host. 5 stars :)

Videos are fantastic

From the presentation to the colorful preparation set-ups and layout of the food Chef Matthew creates an eye catching video that tantalizes the senses. Interviews are interesting too.
