CHIC Podcast #105: Happy New Year!

As another great year draws to a close this coming week, we take a break from talking about food for a musical interlude. And this is a pretty rockin’ one at that. I have chosen some tunes from the vast library of music at Podshow.com. You can check out more of their great independent music at Music.Podshow.com. I think you will enjoy the music I have chosen for you. We’ll be back next week with more discussion of food. Happy new year!

Food Philosophy #69: Belgian Beer

Did you know that Stella Artois was originally brewed as a Christmas lager? And that it is crafted by monks in Belgium? Chef Mark and I learned that and a whole lot more as we explored Belgian beer with our new friend Marc Stroobandt, a Master Beer Sommelier who flew in for a special dinner at Markt restaurant in NYC. He offered us some surprising tidbits, as well as some very helpful guidelines for pairing beer with food.

Featured Belgian beers:
Stella Artois
Hoegaarden
Leffe Blonde
Leffe Brune

Coming later this week: Video with Marc Stroobandt featuring the proper way to pour these beer varieties. Even if you already think you know how, this is worth watching!
