Hi lluisa. Sorry about the late reply. I am so glad the interview left such a good impression. If you have any strings to pull to get me a regular segment, now’s the time hehehe

I remember this interview so clearly. Have been looking for the interview ever since, hoping to learn more about real middle eastern food.I liked your calm and friendly attitude.
I would happily listen to a regular segment and now will learn so much from your blog.
Thanks Fouad !

It was so fun listening to you on that radio show promoting our food in such an easy-going natural style! Loved it and no I did not think you sounded like Frasier; Frasier is a pompous ass, I think.
Great job!

Hey Lili

I forgot my wankeriness in the car. Damn it. hehehehe
I’m quite chuffed with 15 minutes, plus Robbie said he’d like to have me come around every once in a while, so that’s pretty cool…

Isn’t Eddie a champion!

Oh Fouad, SO lovely to hear your voice! You came across as being knowledgeable and passionate without any wankery. Congrats! Plus, I want to make baba gannoush now! I think it is wonderful that you got this opportunity, 15 minutes is a long time. You were great!
(Plus, good on you Eddie for making that happen!)

Thanks Billy. And isn’t it crazy to think that all that food needed to be preserved. Mom did a great job of it. But you’re right, we wouldn’t have the likes of pickles or confit if it weren’t for the need to preserve food.
Seriously though, let me know if you try that recipe and if you like it. I think it makes the best tasting baba gannoush.

Hehehe. Thanks for listening Helen. TV indeed. I freaked out just thinking it’s radio, I’d probably freeze on screen LOL.
Let me know if you want to tag along next time I go hunting for Lebanese sweets.

Great work, what a nice interview! Love to hear about your childhood stories in Lebanon and amazed how food was treated with no refrigeration. I guess that’s how some recipes are developed becuz of the different conditions and factors.

I have two big eggplants in the fridge, baba ganouj here i come! LOL

What a fab interview – you’re a natural! lol. I am insanely jealous of the bounty of treats you brought to the studio. I found all your food descriptions so mouth-watering. Well done you. Next stop, TV!
