Will Lyons - wine critic - and Charlotte Ivers - restaurant critic with The Sunday Times drop in to the home of fellow columnists and podcasters, Esther Walker and Giles Coren - restaurant critic of The Times. Giles prepares lunch with one of his signature dishes “Linguine alla Bottarga” - a Sardinian fish roe favourite of his. But will the four agree on which of the three C's should go with it? - Champagne, Chianti or Chardonnay. Around the kitchen table they discus why writing about food and wine is actually not the best job in the world (really?) and Charlotte's love of natural wine divides opinion.
