His brand-new film investigates the life of Leonardo da Vinci, who, very appropriately for this show, painted The Last Supper. Host Rachel Belle consults an Italian archaeologist about what Jesus and the 12 apostles were actually eating in the famous painting.
Ken claims to be a silent partner at The Restaurant at Burdick’s, the restaurant he helped open more than 20 years ago, but his name is printed on the brunch, lunch and dinner menus! He explains what the Ken Salad is and how it came to be.
Many famous dishes are named after real people, from the Caesar salad to eggs Benedict. We explore the stories behind some of the best-known eponymous foods, like Granny Smith apples and the Cobb salad.
