## Resource

The BC Food News podcast, hosted by Jennifer English, discusses a landmark event in the world of gastronomy: esteemed chef Guy Savoy's induction into the Académie des Beaux-Arts. This is seen as an acknowledgment of culinary arts on par with painting, sculpture, and music. Guy Savoy, known for operating the "Best Restaurant in the World", has helped French gastronomy achieve worldwide acclaim, even having 'repas gastronomique des Français' recognized in UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The episode elucidates Savoy's pride and gratitude at this honor and emphasizes the academy's commitment to acknowledging varied art forms, as indicated by Savoy succeeding Michel David-Weill, an investment banker and philanthropist, in chair V. Savoy's formal induction involved a ceremonial presentation of the Academician's sword, signifying respect for culinary arts.
