Speaker 1: Hi, This is Ruthie Rogers, host of our podcast Ruthie's
Speaker 1: Table four, and I'm the founder of the River Cafe
Speaker 1: in London. Season four of Ruthie's Table four. We'll return
Speaker 1: on the twenty second of October. I'll be sitting down
Speaker 1: with Elton John, David Furnish, Greta Gerwick and Noah Brumbach,
Speaker 1: Kristen Scott, Thomas, Cienna Miller, Ian McKellen, Tony Blair and
Speaker 1: many many more. If food is love, Elton John and
Speaker 1: his husband David Furnish fell in love over food.
Speaker 2: He asked for my number that evening he said, we'll
Speaker 2: we'll have a Chinese takeaway. I sounds like I love
Speaker 2: Chinese food. So I arrive at the house and there's
Speaker 2: four giant cardboard boxes on the kitchen counter and the
Speaker 2: table set for two, And I said, who else is coming?
Speaker 2: And Elton didn't know what I like, so he ordered
Speaker 2: the entire menu.
Speaker 1: I'd marry a man like that, I mean, I'd marry
Speaker 1: you the minutes somebody did that. Tony Blair came to
Speaker 1: the restaurant and went straight to the kitchen apron chef's
Speaker 1: whites and stood next to the chef who was doing
Speaker 1: the Rottolo di Spinacci.
Speaker 3: You actually make all the pasta yourself, all the fresh pasta.
Speaker 3: So this is like one of the reasons why when
Speaker 3: I was in gunment we did a lot on early
Speaker 3: years education and school meals. Indeed, is because could she
Speaker 3: not go to school and be hungry, and to give
Speaker 3: them an appreciation of good food early and healthy food
Speaker 3: is important.
Speaker 1: I spoke to Greta Gerwick about the food of her
Speaker 1: childhood and how it influenced the way she eats on
Speaker 1: the set of her movies.
Speaker 4: I actually tend to revert to really juvenile food habits,
Speaker 4: like I eat cheetos, cheetos and diet coat in sort
Speaker 4: of like astonishing quantities.
Speaker 1: Our first episode will be my friend Guillermo del Toro,
Speaker 1: who is in London directing his new movie Frankenstein.
Speaker 5: With Frankenstein, I wrote the opening fifteen pages, and the
Speaker 5: student said, how was he going so fantastic? Because I
Speaker 5: started writing that movie the idea for more than twenty
Speaker 5: years ago.
Speaker 1: This is a podcast that is slightly influenced by having
Speaker 1: spent fifteen minutes drinking tequila at eleven o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1: But we had a great time this is what you
Speaker 1: told me to get.
Speaker 5: Well, let's right this three.
