A Chef's Table: Home and Travel, August 16, 2007

Food is all about the familiarity of home and also new discoveries when we travel. On today's show, we talk about the foods we know - and the ones we want to! Biba Gaggiano reflects on her favorite cities: Rome, Florence, Bologna, Venice, and Milan. We'll learn the history of Tex Mex cuisine, and a transplanted Brit discovers foods across the US. Frank Stitt offers a look at his native Alabama, while Amy Sedaris recalls growing up in North Carolina and Southern hospitality. [Broadcast Date: August 16, 2007]
