Rick Stein's Far Eastern Odyssey

About the show

Renowned chef and successful author, Rick Stein, sets off on an epic culinary journey to explore the Far East’s most diverse food cultures which have soared to the height of
popularity the world over. Experience a heady mix of the Chinese and French influences that characterise Vietnamese food; the distinctive and unusual Khmer cuisine of
Cambodia; and the light and fragrant flavours of Bangladesh that helped to shape the menus of so many UK curry houses. From ruby red chillies to an incredible variety of
seafood, fresh fruit and exotic vegetables, this is a mouth-watering trip bursting with new taste sensations, vibrant flavours and unusual recipes. During his journey, Rick
visits traditional family-run restaurants, street vendors, night markets, fishing villages and local farmers to learn about the authentic food of the area and to sample the delicious spectrum of flavours. Rick’s journey across the Far East also takes in Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia and the islands of Indonesia.
