ReMARKable Palate #249: The Traditional Foods of Belize | ReMARKable Palate #249: The Traditional Foods of Belize I'm BAACK! Thanks for being patient with me during my summer hiatus. I needed some time to recharge and regroup, and I'm back with a vengeance. I'll be bringing you new shows weekly again, starting with THIS ONE: This week, I speak with Susana Eiley of El Fogon, an eatery in San Pedro Belize, which is centered on a traditional hearth fired wood oven. I just got back from a quick trip to Belize last week, where I got a chance to have a whirlwind tour and discovery of the great foods in this unique nation of mixed heritage. I'll have many more blog posts, audio podcasts and of course videos from this trip. Look for them soon! Theme Song: "Go Fish", by Big Money Grip, from the Podsafe Music Network.

Customer Reviews
Taste, Travel, Tafoya!
I LOVE the ReMARKable Palate. This is a foodie gem - if you love to hear about food - cooking it, eating it, growing it, whatever! - and you enjoy experiencing different cultures - Italy, Alaska, Nova Scotia and Mannhattan just in the last few months! - you should not waste a moment in subscribing to this podcast. Chef Mark is not only knowledgeable and creative, but his performance background shows through in every intro, commentary, interview and experience. You will not be able to put down your headphones once he gets going.
Great Show, one of the best
There is was one of the best shows regarding food and cooking I have listened to. I would still say Gastrologica is my favorite but this is a very close second. The interviews went very well and kept a flow to them. It seems Mark may have done interviews previously or it comes very naturally to him. They were very entertaining to say the least. The sound quality was very good considering the circumstances of the recording. There were no issues of not being able to hear either party. The only issue I had was very minor. Sometimes during an interview / discussions, the voices would move from one ear to the other as the person moved around. I highly recommend that anyone with an interest in cooking should give this show a listen. There are some great cooking tips, an abundance of information and it's very entertaining.
