Some people travel to see the monuments or the beautiful scenery. Not me. I travel to find the kind of weeknight meals cooked by people the world over. On the sleepy Greek island of Lesvos we make a local favorite – zucchini pie. And then at a Sultan’s palace in Istanbul a top chef shows me how to bake fish in a salt crust. Finally, I discover a new tasty tapa on a food tour of Barcelona.
Where does the show air in your neck of the woods?
