Meet 'Seattle Eats with Tan Vinh' a new podcast from KUOW and The Seattle Times

Seattle is a buffet of great food... if you know where to look. Introducing, Seattle Eats with Tan Vinh, a joint production from KUOW and The Seattle Times. Seattle Eats explores eating and cooking in the Puget Sound region through the eyes of Tan Vinh, award-winning food and drink writer.

Listeners will get an insider's look at the vibrant, local food scene, from the hottest restaurants, road-side food stalls, and everywhere in between. Vinh will share his tips for where to get the best meals in the city and introduce the people who make them sing.

This season will cover everything from pizza to teriyaki to the best wine at Costco. Up first: Where can you get the best slice of pizza in Seattle? That’s what The Seattle Times asked readers in its Summer Pizza Smackdown — and the Times’ food writers happen to agree with the answer. In the first episode of Seattle Eats, Vinh counts down the 4 best pies in the city with fellow Seattle Times food writers Jackie Varriano and Bethany Jean Clement.

Listeners can find new episodes of Seattle Eats every other Thursday through December 12, 2024 in all major podcasting platforms.
