A Taste of History S07 E11 Eliza Powel's Sinful Feast

Eliza Powel was the premiere hostess of the 18th century. She prepared decadent feasts that inspired John Adams to write a letter to Abigail, describing dinner as “sinful.” Now, for the first time since Mrs. Powel’s presentation, Chef Walter Staib recreates her “Sinful Feast,” preparing it in her historic Philadelphia home.
