Description

Season 3 is here, and we’re diving into how French cuisine became the gold standard of fine dining!

In our new format, we uncover the rich and often outrageous history behind France’s culinary world dominance.


From medieval feasts and royal decadence at Versailles to the invention of the Michelin star and the rise of culinary tourism, we trace the centuries-long journey that elevated French food to the top. Put on your beret, grab a baguette, and join us as we explore the fanciful history of French cuisine and why it's so well regarded today.
