Foodie and the Beast - Dec. 10, 2023

Hosted by David and Nycci Nellis.  On today’s show:  ·        The holiday season is filled with some truly unique special events. One you definitely want to know about comes up Tuesday, Dec. 12 at The Square in D.C. Famed chocolatier Chef Ursula XVII, who has whipped up pastries for some of the best – like, for Michael White at the Michelin-starred Ai Fiori, Thomas Keller at Per Sei, and Claudia Fleming at the North Fork Table and Inn – hosts a traditional Catalan Christmas food event. She’ll demo how to make those yummy Catalan 'torrons' or (nougats) and chat about yummy traditional Catalan products like cava, wines, chocolates, cheeses and olive oil. Chef Ursula joins us with all the details;                 ·        We do a lot of entertaining. Nyc is a star cook and David is the man at the sink doing the dishes. But sometimes, we just need more help than the hands at home. And when you need extra hands, the only thing that really helps are professional hands – bartenders, servers, and dishwashers. Fear not. Party Host Helpers is here, and so is the company’s founder and CEO , Renee Patrone Rhinehart. She offers us the solution to our party staffing needs; ·        Lisa Lucas and Debrianna Mansini are two lively women. You may be fans of their show, “Corona Kitchen,” on YouTube and Facebook Live, and of their new book, “That Time We Ate Our Feelings,” which shares stories of their experiences growing up in foodie families;                                                                                                                ·        Not everyone needs a world-class executive chef at home, but sometimes…when you’ve planned something special … you do! Founded by chef Brian Arruda (former executive chef at Boulud Sud), Executive Chefs at Home is a premier global private placement agency for top chefs who come to you to curate customized dining experiences; Jake Ireland, founder & CEO of Off Hours Bourbon, offers authentically crafted bourbon made for the modern bourbon drinker. David can vouch for it personally, having enjoyed a fair portion of the sample Jake sent us on Halloween.                                                                See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
