Welcome to Episode 8 of The Layman Chef Podcast! I caught up with my dear friend Melanie Z, a former New Yorker now living in the South of France. We chatted over Zoom (the first remote Layman Chef recording!) about living in the rosé capital of France, the difference between tians and ratatouille, her adventures with French wild boar, missing hot sauce, and EXACTLY how many bottles of French wine you can fit in your luggage without paying an overweight fee (it’s more than you’d think!). Hope you enjoy!
Discussed in this Episode:
Melanie’s new home base, Saint-Raphaël.
The Local Marche
The Poissonnière
