Chef Mark Tafoya



It’s been awhile since you’ve heard from me here on the show. I’ve been out in the real world building teams of chefs for real life dinner party extravaganzas and working with medical professionals to provide quality nutritional diets for special needs patients. It’s a new calling for me, and I beg your leave for my long absence, and as an offering, I’m sharing with you this lovely conversation I had with my old friend Barrie Lynn Krich, the Cheese Impresario. Barrie Lynn shares with us some fine artisanal cheeses, and we pair them with a cognac she’s fallen in love with, brought to you by a surprising music star! This one has been aging in the cheese cave, and it’s ready for tasting!

The Cheese Impresario

Theme Song: “Go Fish”, by Big Money Grip, from the Podsafe Music Network.

ReMARKable Palate is a production of The Gilded Fork. www.gildedfork.com
