Summary
Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.
I’m out and about having dim sum of the gods in Covent Gardens Din Tai Fung with Bake Off star and subsequent smash hit cleb’ chef, Chetna Makan. We had such a swanky time. Chetna has got strong grown-up vibes so we were quite a comical pairing. Also in a hoovering first, she kept getting fan-bombed, which I kept in, why not?!
