One of the year’s best new podcasts comes from none other than Ruth Rogers, the chef, owner, and co-founder of The River Cafe, one of London’s most beloved restaurants. Called River Cafe Table Four, the show features Ruth and her very famous friends (Victoria Beckham, Paul McCartney, Glenn Close, Jake Gyllenhaal, and others) in conversation about food moments and memories. Ruth joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about stepping out of her comfort zone, why asking about comfort food is always a good idea, and the joys of a simple tomato sauce. They also chat about Ruth’s accidental career as a chef and how things are these days at The River Cafe. Thank you to Cambozola for supporting this episode.
