Seafood Fight, Traditional Medicine and L'Arrange Rhum

Saigoneer Podcast - A podcast by Saigoneer

Categories:

This week, we begin (1:07) with a debate over our favorite types of seafood, a conversation which turns rather philosophical in the end. Then (12:45), we discuss traditional Vietnamese medicine, which is quite different from the more famous traditional Chinese medicine. Are various aspects of it hokum, or scientifically legitimate? Our interview guests (25:14) are Jérémy Marcillaud and Nicolas Plesse of L'Arrange Rhum. We chatted about their decision to begin making hand-distilled rum in Saigon, and where they hope to take their craft in the future.
