On this week’s show, a chat with the one person who has been raising the flag and telling us all how important it is to work with local farmers for the past 46 years. Her love of the French lifestyle, culture, food traditions and wine, led Alice Waters, at the age of 27, to open Chez Panisse in Berkeley, where it has remained a force in the food world for the past 46 years. She joins Rick and Steve to talk about food and her new book: “Coming to My Senses: The Making of a Counterculture Cook.”
