Summary

Hi I’m Margie Nomura and welcome to another episode of our side dish: The Dream Dinner Party. This is the mini episode where we invite a guest to tell us all about their dream dinner party. This is a game I know a lot of people have played on long car journeys or maybe first dates so it’s really fun to sit down with a different guest each week and hear who they would invite and what they would serve. You’re allowed to invite 4 people – anyone you want, and I think its impossible to listen without thinking of your own answers

This week we have Matt Rodbard who is a critically lauded writer, editor and author of food and culture books s well as the host of the this is taste podcast – a show which features culturally relevant and surprising discussions about food and drink. There’s nothing matt doesn’t know about restaurants and what’s hot – so it was fun to sit down with him and talk all about dinner parties and his dream dinner party.

0:22.5	I'm sure lots of you listening will be familiar with crude cafe coffee, but if you haven't

0:31.8	From sweet and floral arabicas grown in Central America to bold and deep robusters drenched by India's monsoon rains,

0:46.5	I've actually stopped drinking coffee with milk, which I never thought I would.
0:50.3	And of course, you can still enjoy a milky coffee, but I just find the flavour of the coffee

1:01.3	I am not a wine expert, but you can really taste the different notes from light and bright

1:19.5	gets reinvested back into the local community to pay for water supplies, schools and health
1:25.1	centres. So this is a company that's creating not only a better
