The series won the Best TV Series prize at the Bologna food on film festival in 2008.
We got some amazing reviews, too.
I wrote a book about the insane journeys we went on. Here’s an extract from the intro and here’s a chapter extract all about the insanity of Cameroon.

The book
It’s an award-winning 13-episode BBC TV series and book about my culinary journeys to the world’s most difficult and dangerous places. The idea is to discover how people cook, eat and survive in extreme conditions. Whilst making it, I drank radioactive wine with babushkas in Chernobyl, ate fat-tailed sheep with Taliban warlords in Afghanistan, yak’s penis with Chinese communists, civet cat with Karen rebels deep inside the Burmese jungle, and rotting walrus with the Inuit of the Canadian Arctic.
