A Cook Abroad

Available on

BBC Two

Celebrity cooks travel across the globe to learn different recipes. Each episode follows a chef as they look into the eating habits of various cultures and their history with food. On a trip to Egypt, `Hairy Biker' star Dave Myers discovers the origins of some of the world's oldest recipes. He finds ancient farming sites on the banks of the River Nile and in Giza, Dave visits the pyramids whose builders were said to have survived on bread and beer. Elsewhere, Scottish chef Tony Singh traces the roots of his mum's Punjabi cooking on his travels to India.
