Salt Lick with David McMillan & Lesley Chesterman

Grand Prix Tea & Lemonade


Listen Later

David shares some A-lister anecdotes and his mixed feelings about the testosterone-charged bash that kicks off Montréal's festival season, just as news breaks of a decade-long contract renewal between the city and Formula 1.

But first, Lesley and David get into the quintessential summer drink: lemonade. They share tips on how to make it on the cheap for a crowd, how to dress it up with homemade syrups, and how to turn leftover rinds into lemon sugar.

Then, much of the discussion focuses on the Canadian Grand Prix, which has taken place in Montréal since the '70s, and the impact this prestigious event has had on the city's fine dining scene; about a month of sales over one weekend, David estimates, for some well-placed restaurants.

Names dropped include: Danny Devito, Jacques Villeneuve, Sylvester Stallone, Gene Hackman (RIP), Matthew McConaughey, Bruce Willis and George Harrison—that was just one table David's team served at Globe one Saturday night in the early aughts.

Also, in the kitchen, some underrated sources of protein like squid, pinto or cowboy beans, and hanger steak, with David revealing the recipe to his pungent go-to condiment for beef; watch our Instagram account for that and Lesley's recipe for the original chocolate lava cake by the late Nicolas Jongleux.
