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!)
Three Food Memories
Zoe Terakes, actor, author, activist
"I'd bought men's deodorant. I put it on, and I just couldn't stop crying." - Zoe Terakes
In this episode of Three Food Memories, you'll meet actor and author Zoe Terakes who has lit up the screen in Wentworth, starred alongside Nicole Kidman in Nine Perfect Strangers, and scored a Helpmann nomination at just 19 years old. And although they might not speak Greek, they feel Cretan right down to their bones (just don't mention the Turks to grandpa).
On Zoe's menu is: slow food at Ntounias, beans of the day in Fourni, and dad’s fiddly koulourakia.
Sides include: what it took to write Eros: Queer Myths for Lovers (out now!), how awkward it is to record said book as an audiobook when you have to repeat the word cock multiple times for the sound engineer, why they shouted at MP Penny Wong, and a deep dive into queer love.
Zoe's social causes are Trans rights, Palestinian rights, and First Nations rights...as they say "I’m never truly free until you are truly free".
