The Splendid Table, hosted by award-winning food writer Francis Lam, is an original weekly companion, celebrating the intersection of food and life for more than three decades. A culinary, culture, and lifestyle program, it hosts our nation's conversations about cooking, sustainability, and food culture and introduces us to generations of food dignitaries.
In 2018, Francis took over the program from its founding host, Lynne Rossetto Kasper. The Splendid Table explores diderent cultures, cuisines and ideas, as well as the small personal stories that come out of the expansive world of the table. As a former restaurant cook and culinary school graduate, Francis can handle virtually any food query and loves taking listeners’ calls. He is keenly interested in people and their stories and believes that one of the keys to understanding people better is to learn what they cook and how they eat. The program is produced and distributed by American Public Media.
