I appreciate the in-depth discussions of ingredients, culture, and genealogy of the foods! Thank you for all the research and clarity! I always enjoy each episode and eager look forward for next “class!” session! 🌷wonderful example of listening to learn— rather than fix!

Amazing and prolific show for people who like to think about food.

I love the way the hosts really get their subjects to open up. Great guest roster, and really dig the wide variety of topics.

This is my favorite podcast! There is a great mix of people coming ranging from pure chef to technologist and entrepreneur. The episodes with Jean George and the ones with Leventhal are amazing ! But my all times favorites were the one on Pizza week !!! Just give it a try, and you ll be hook.

The guests are mostly outstanding, and Aliza is an incredible interviewer, but Matt is getting tougher and tougher to listen to. He really tailors his style to each guest in an obvious, inauthentic way, and he uses soooo many filler words. Take a shot every time he says “like, definitely,” and...Read full review »

I’ve been listening for a while, often enjoying guests I don’t know from the chef and cookbook author world. I find both Eliza and Matt to be excellent interviewers with their own styles. However - today I saw Melissa Urban (of whole30) as a guest. I immediately recoiled thinking this podcast...Read full review »

Find a name that you know, find a name that you don’t know! Push play and check it out. You might be surprised. 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

Tried for the first time today, 7/23, and couldn’t make it past the seven minute mark. Just two hosts talking about restaurants in Manhattan. Nothing useful.
TJ Lily via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/23/24
The host needs to ease up on signifying how hip he is, and rushing the conversation on to his battery of assigned questions. Loosen up a little !
Oh,please via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/24
tried listening to the sandor katz episode but had to stop because the interviewer just kept (as many have said) cutting the guest short. it feels like a listening problem because the responses are usually nothing more than “oh i love how you said this” or “i love how you describe this” or “oh...Read full review »

Good, but too frequent and self indulgent to keep up with. It’s not necessary to release an episode every day about one cookbook. The guy from eater stating that Los Angeles people didn’t care about food in the aughts is the dumbest statement I’ve ever heard someone agree with.
AliG4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/24
I’ve been listening to this podcast for a couple of years now. I’m a fan and I don’t skip many episodes but thought I might skip this most recent with Alex Lau because I’m not really interested in photography. I’m so happy that I listened as the conversation was delightful! Alex’s story about...Read full review »

snobby rich hipsters
SkylerECU via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/24
I wish Matt would let them finish their sentences instead of forever jumping in to prove his hipster creds. Eliza’s good.
phgrc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
Love the conversation- so good!
tfkivs4@ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/24
As I sit here in my night time bed in Barcelona, this was so much fun to hear. LOVE pizza, lived in Argentina for twenty five years, always had great pizza there. Will never forget the evening in Buenos Aires when I invited a Mexican friend for dinner….question was, “what are we having”….I said...Read full review »

Love listening to the show - really enjoy hearing from the guests they bring on and appreciate the good questions from the hosts.

interviewing knowledgeable food lovers.
RedBeanAbout via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/05/24
This is a great podcast. The interviews are fascinating. A great mix of food, restaurants, chefs, and the geopolitical aspect of food and cultures. The hosts are wonderful interviewers and listeners. I love!
jlenore via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/23
Love the podcast and the guests you bring on the show! It could be even better with less interjections from Matt. Matt, we understand that you know a lot about food. However, we’re here for the guests, not the host.
Kebabistan3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/23
Matt’s interviews are hard to listen to because he continually cuts people off. I’ve tried so many times to like this podcast and just can’t.
fanofthesecretmullet via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/23
I love this pod. A great mix of guests with a diverse array of perspectives. Host is knowledgeable and engaging, always does his homework and asks insightful questions that elicit interesting answers.

Features incredible guests! So glad I found.
Crush412333 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/09/23
Just found this podcast by listening to the Pete Wells episode, and I love it! The interviews are thoughtful and current, and provide fascinating glimpse into the food scene for a non- food industry professional- and avid home cook & cookbook lover. Highly recommend, and digging into the past...Read full review »

Someone should tell Matt to stop talking over and interrupting his guests right in the middle of them making a point. It’s really annoying
thisNickNickName via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/15/23
I know interrupty isn’t a word, but I can’t help myself. I want to hear what the guest says, not have the host cut them off to insert their own idea or ask a different question. While this seems to come from a place of sincere passion and curiosity, this is very frustrating to listen to. Please...Read full review »

Too much interjecting from the host, Matt. Love the guests brought on, but want to be able to hear from them with less interruption. The latest interview with Pete Wells was difficult to listen to. Matt didn’t give him a chance to finish his thoughts fully.
Midnight crumpet via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/23
Great interviews and very insightful. However, I suggest getting rid of the last question that you ask guests about their dream cookbook. It’s unnecessary and getting annoying. I’m sure most listeners don’t care. Can you please stop asking a question!?
Food admirer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/28/23
I’ve been listening for about 2 years now (I think) and I love the podcast! Very interesting guests and discussions. Some I know and some I’ve never heard of and I almost always learn something new. My suggestion is to please come up with a new end of podcast question. I’ve heard the cookbook...Read full review »

One of my favorite weekly podcasts with a unique and diverse mix of guests. The interviews are fascinating and I love how deep the host goes with these conversations. Definitely the best food pod out there. My only complaint is that I always end up making a big meal after a listen :)
AJ Mentaiko via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/23
Matt and his incredibly knowledgeable guests shine the brightest lights on the food industry and those inside of it! Bold, insightful, and engaging are just a few of the words I’d use to describe the time you’ll spend with them. Thanks so much for putting out such a superb show Matt - keep up the...Read full review »
mvelasco07 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/23
The host, Matt's, interview style strikes a great balance between the nitty gritty details of all things food (restaurants, cookbooks, food writing) without losing sight of the bigger picture of a love of food that spans all different cultures and price points.Read full review »
14CatL via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/23
I’ve been a long-time listener for years and absolutely love the range of guests and topics covered, but the host’s pretentious attitude is hard to swallow sometimes. We get it…you love name dropping and talking like you’re above certain things. It seems like a missed opportunity to be empathetic...Read full review »

I really find that these interviews are full of life and the guests are people I want to get to know better. Love the Claire talk.
Jimmy Poils via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/22
…not enough about the guest.
pajco190 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/23/22
Im a big fan as listen each week. The guests appear to have the best time. Dowloading many episodes.
MonteFools via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/22
These unique conversations are such a treat. There is such a great mix of guests, each episode is a must-listen! Something for everyone.
readerandpodcaster via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/22
One of the best food podcasts out there! Great conversations, great guests, great listen. From chefs to small business owners to cookbook authors, they really cover all their bases!
MT530 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/22
Love this podcast and could listen to Chef Pepin talk about chickens and his Connecticut accent for hours. Bravo!
oak park birder via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/21
TASTE is back (thank you) and better than ever. Each episode teaches me something about cooking or food. A fine podcast subscription.
kazookas via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/11/21
Just all around excellent food/cooking podcast.

Great interviews and fun informative segments. Especially a fan of co-host Anna Hezel.
Dannybites via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/21
This is a great podcast about food culture with a wide range of interesting guests. Anna and Matt truly know their stuff and I’m always learning something new each episode!
Buffalowhig via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/03/21
Love the deliciously wide range of topics, guests, and perspectives week after week....but (please, please, please) can Anna find a new rejoinder to use in her interviews besides (always, always, always) ‘for sure’? Sorry, but it cheapens the otherwise sophisticated conversations. Otherwise,...Read full review »
