Foodie and the Beast – Nov. 18, 2018

Today on Foodie and the Beast was a classic, filled with amazing eats, cocktails …CHAMPAGNE! … and, what else, beauty tips (go figure!). Joining us were:

• Two extremely talented guys from the French Embassy – Chef Mark Courseille and GM Max Jacquet – they run Le Café Descartes, Au Petit Bouchon and catering at … the French Embassy here in DC. Yup, a fine dining restaurant, a café and soup-to-nuts catering, all available at an embassy. It’s the only deal like it in DC and … the food is amazing.
• Return guest, Chef Peter Prime of Spark at Engine Company 12 in Bloomingdale and a true master of Trinidadian-inspired cuisine. The menu has wowed reviewers, including the Post’s Tom Seitsema and just recently landed spark a coveted spot on the Michelin Bib Gourmand list. Chef Peter came in with delish bites and a special announcement you won’t want to miss!
• Rachel Mulcahy, proprietor of Ivy Wild, a clean beauty boutique in D.C., was in to discuss the world of clean, high-performance skincare and cosmetics for a high- performance life.
• Last, but hardly least, mixology master Jacob Weinstein, GM at Anna Bran Leis’ Taqueria Del Barrio, mixed up some signature cocktails that were eye-poppingly pretty and went down with a bang!

Tune in! We had fun! You will , too!
