Three Food Memories

Listen for free

The things you find out when you ask people about their food memories can be soulful, spicy, sensational, sour, and sublime. Often you'll discover something you never knew about the person you asked - and this is what the Three Food Memories podcast is about, how every food memory is linked to a moment in time.

Three Food Memories is hosted by Savva Savas, dad of twin boys, entrepreneur, caterer, and creator. In each episode Savva chats with a guest who shares three food memories and a social cause close to their heart, revealing far more about themselves than what they’ve tasted.

Be prepared for some hilarious and otherwise never-heard-before stories, and if you love listening - please tell your friends (and like, subscribe, and follow for all the goodness!)

    "You can never have too much of a good feeling" - Sophie Ellis-Bextor


    On this episode of Three Food Memories you'll sit down with the one and only darling of (kitchen) disco, Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

    On the menu: lobster casserole cooked by her husband Richard, spaghetti pomodoro by the beach in Italy, and cod and chorizo stew with the band and baby.

    Sides include: musings on music, family, work, and being a mum to five boys. Oh, and a random eBay purchase that's become part of the wallpaper.

    Sophie's social cause is Save the Children UK, who reached 41.2m children in 93 countries around the world. From crisis response to lasting change, they fight for every child's right to survive, learn and be protected – in the UK and around the world.
