journeyPod is your guide to luxury travel around the world.  Listen in as Iron Chef Cat Cora and Iron Chef Morimoto give us some info on their cooking styles at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival.  Cat shares some news on her new CCQ barbeque restaurant opening in May.  Iron Chef Morimoto talks about his restaurants in Philly, NY, and India.

Cat grew up in Mississippi and so she uses some Southern cooking styles in her own dishes.  She also relies on her Greek upbringing to blend in wonderful Mediterranean flavors.  And of course her culinary training in France with 3 star Michelin chefs.

Morimoto left Nobu to start his own restaurants.  He was the original Iron Chef Japanese on the first Iron Chef programs in Japan.

Enjoy the sounds of Brain Buckit and their tune, "Let the Boogie Out."
