  • Summary

  • Tea Malmegård interviews ten chefs she greatly admires from various parts of Scandinavia. By visiting the chefs in their natural habitat - the kitchen of their famous restaurants - Tea is able to break down the barrier that normally exists between guests and the secret world of chefs.

    Tea says: "The idea for Behind the Menu came from a strong wish to ask some of the questions a foodie might have for the chef when dining out, that they don't have time to answer when working. I met ten of Scandinavia's best chefs, and their stories of how their love of cooking are as unique and tasty as their signature dishes are."

I wish there was more than one season!

I’m a chef that worked very hard to be proud to call myself a chef and this podcast just hit home. The way the author/interviewer talks to the chefs shes has on the show is amazing, it’s just very fun to listen to. Also the fact that she’s in the restaurants is a very interesting touch that I think makes the podcast different from others in such a great way.

chefs deserve to be interviewed

tea is really good at interviewing chefs. tea's accomplishments are commendable as well. I've been in the food biz for decades and I appreciated her level of interviewing skills.

Relaxing conversations between chefs

Lovely to listen to Behind the Menu while you're cooking! Chef Tea Malmgard is a warm interviewer who draws out the chefs' stories. It's very relaxing to listen to the episodes which are well-paced. The chefs clearly trust Malmgard and talk about their challenges and vulnerabilities and hopes. More episodes please!
