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!)

Actually, I'm gonna ask a very selfish and time-sensitive question because I know we're both about to embark on holidays to foreign lands with our small people in tow. And I want to know what you do when you're travelling. What would you recommend? Are you someone that likes to book ahead and have a little food plan for the days? Or are you someone that can just be quite wing it and be just like, I'm just gonna look on the phone and see what's nearby and what's got decent reviews?
SPEAKER_01Every year I take the boys to Europe because I love going back there. It's it's where home feels. But on the other side of those trips, we'll take we'll go to places that we've never been before. And I'll always get in and research and book and all the rest of it. We when we went to Japan, which is where you're headed next, our everyday was planned because you have to, it's just such a busy place, and you don't you are you a bit panicked? No, I'm calm. I've got time. But you have to book like the things that you know, Team Lab or all that sort of stuff, or museums, or the Ghibli Museum, you've got to really, really book. So I I I had all that booked, but what I do in every single country, and which the boys absolutely love, and that's the first thing they say, have you booked? Uh, what we book every single time is a food walking tool. So that gives us, and I really dig deep because food is it it tells you the history of a place. And I've been to some countries and done food walks, and you can instantly tell that hang on, this is not this, there's something wrong here. A lot of the countries you go to, the food tells a story. It's it's like an anthropological discovery, and the boys just go crazy, and it gives the boys, gives it also gives me bearings of the culture and what we're getting into. And from there, from the the people that are doing these tours, and invariably they're kind of real socialists and and and they have a great civic responsibility, and they love their cities and they love their countries, so you're getting the best of that culture. So, my big recommendation every time you go to somewhere new is book in a food tour, and they take about six hours and make sure that what there's some of those tours where you can every 10-20 minutes you are stopping to eat, eating something because it's within that eating that you get to feel the experience. So we're going to Seoul tomorrow in some capacity. Um, and as soon as we land tomorrow evening, and then the following morning at 10 o'clock, we are starting our food walking tour. And that one's eight hours with a very big lunch in the middle. Yeah. So, um, and the boys are kind of crazy for it. That's so cool. But so that would be that would be my advice on travelling to new places.
