Cherie enlightens us about peptides from the neighbour down the road, unsure about this one but she has assured us they are not illegal. Cam sets us up with the great battle of cuisines, having us unpack what cuisine wins across the globe. As per most our conversations, it's not all straight forward and the cuisine war is still up for debate. Pull up a seat and join us at the table!
