    Huh? Pierre Koffman isn't here
    This review is for the podcast titled "Pierre Koffman's 50 years in the kitchen". When you download it and press "play", what you get is a cheeky commentary on the US election found in the "Midori House" and not "The Menu". Hope someone is able to fix it. Will head over to "The Midori House" and see if some wires were crossed.
