Excellent series.

Kudos to Simon for creating and being a part of this great series. Food brings, health, love, friendship. You may be by yourself enjoying a favourite food, with friends cooking and enjoying a meal. To learn about our favourite foods just makes it more meaningful.

Hungry in Ottawa ,

Simon at his best!

Love the new podcast Mr. Majumdar! Your knowledge of, and obsession with, food makes this a total delight to listen to. Since you welcomed topic ideas, I hope you share some of your observations around being a food critic and judge during an episode. Thanks for doing this podcast! Victoria (in Ottawa)
