Three Food Memories
The things you find out when you ask people about their food memories can be soulful, spicy, sensational, sour, and sublime. Often you'll discover something you never knew about the person you asked - and this is what the Three Food Memories podcast is about, how every food memory is linked to a moment in time.
Three Food Memories is hosted by Savva Savas, dad of twin boys, entrepreneur, caterer, and creator. In each episode Savva chats with a guest who shares three food memories and a social cause close to their heart, revealing far more about themselves than what they’ve tasted.
Be prepared for some hilarious and otherwise never-heard-before stories, and if you love listening - please tell your friends (and like, subscribe, and follow for all the goodness!)

Richard Tognetti AO, lead violin and artistic director ACO
"The thing about stealing a violin... the Russian oligarchs aren't in the market anymore" - Richard Tognetti
In this episode you'll meet Richard Tognetti, Artistic Director of the Australian Chamber Orchestra who has been leading the charge for an astonishing 35 years - making him the longest-serving artistic director on the planet!
What’s his secret to staying forever young? Music and surfing, but not at the same time.
This episode is a vibrant celebration of Richard’s remarkable journey, the ACO’s 50th anniversary, his 60th birthday, and a love letter to his hometown, the 'Gong.
On the menu: classic fish and chips wrapped in newspaper, sizzling Japanese izakaya fare, David Thompson’s Nahm Phrik and a dash of Meatloaf, Nutloaf, and the pursuit of pure surfing zen.
Richard's social cause is the ACO Foundations, an in-school program which uses music learning to improve the developmental and educational outcomes of children in low socio-economic status schools.
