From kitchen to culture: what food feels like home?
Afternoons with Helen Farmer
Friday, 16 May 2025 - 58 minutes
In this flavorful episode of Farmer’s Kitchen, Jen Crichton explores how food connects us to our roots — even when we’re far from home. Khalid Al Sabi of Barrad, Shaw Lash of Lila’s Taqueria, and Fay Economides of Mythos join Jen to reflect on the emotional power of food, inspired by the hit TV show No Place Like Home.
Next, we tackle a heated topic: food allergies and the growing challenges they present for restaurants. Allergist Dr. Stuart Carr and allergy sufferers share their insights on navigating dining out safely.
We wrap up with a cultural twist — it’s International Museum Day! Nada Badran shares how you can get involved, and food writer Simon Ritchie dishes out the latest in culinary news, from Michelin hopefuls to an unexpected olive oil controversy involving Sam Altman.
