Simon Majumdar is back.

Get ready to delve into a whole new season of Eat My Globe!

Season 3 is packed with loads of new stories, historical food facts and some very well known guests.

It all starts October 7th, 2019!

Very few individuals can claim to have had as much impact on the way we eat today (in the West, at least) as George Auguste Escoffier. During his life he redefined the way kitchens worked and the style in which food was presented to diners. He also created thousands of dishes and wrote books that are still considered culinary bibles today. Behind the scenes however, he led a life that was often much darker than his public persona. This episode of Eat My Globe will look at the life and works of the greatest chef of them all.

The world of food is filled with many examples that show how cultures can combine to created new dishes, and indeed whole new cuisines.

One example is the increasingly popular noodle soup, Pho.

In this episode, we look at how this soup came to be and how it went from being a local specialty in the north of the country to being one of the most popular soups in the world.
