Alice Waters; Chef Rene Redzepi; Restaurant in Rwanda; Please Explain

The Leonard Lopate Show | Nov 14, 2013

Alice Waters talks about her latest cookbook, The Art of Simple Food II, and about the links between taste, cooking, gardening, and taking care of the land. Noma’s Rene Redzepi, who has been called one of the most innovative chefs in the world, reveals where he gets inspiration for new recipes. Josh Ruxin explains why he and his wife decided to leave Brooklyn and open a restaurant in Rwanda. And this week’s Please Explain looks at the evolution of the utensils we cook will and eat with every day—pots and pans, and forks, knives, and spoons.
