In this episode, Rex shares some secrets and different takes on food and wine pairing. He provides some fantastic tips and shares the ‘super food’ that you can create and serve without having to worry what wine your guests bring to your next dinner party. Rex’s view is that food and wine pairing in some circles has become a bit too snobbish or too rarefied, so he brings it down to earth and blows away some of the froth. Somehow, the talk of fried chicken, falafel and gewurztraminer (including the correct way to pronounce it) gets fully discussed.

Youie’s favourite word on this episode is Triassic and it’s wonderfully explained by Rex.
