Things I Enjoyed Watching in 2023

Maybe one of these will entertain you during the holidays

In this edition of Red Beans & Advice, I’m mentioning some of the favorite food related programs I watched in 2023.

I am constantly going down rabbit holes, finding programs from all over the world. With the flood of content out there these days, I don’t always discover shows when they are brand new, so apologies if I’m late to any of these parties.

But that flood is a blessing, because I am delighted by the range of food TV that’s available. There are two reasons why I love international programs. One is that I’m always interested in learning about new foods. The other is to practice my language skills. Both are good exercise for your brain and I can then put these skills to use. (Don’t worry, English subtitles are available.)

Here are some of my broadcast highlights for this year, with clips when available.
