Summary
Jamie Oliver tours Europe and North Africa in search of the world's cultures and cuisines. In Marrakesh, Jamie explores the alleyways of the old Medina and the Djemaa el Fna square as he dodges snake charmers and tooth sellers to try out the street food of the city. In Athens, he tries his hand at street fishing and meets bee keepers. In Andalucía, he joins trainee bullfighters practicing in Spain's oldest bull ring and cooks paella for the whole village. In Midi-Pyrénées, he goes truffle-hunting with a pig and boar hunting with dogs. Venice sees him going off the tourist track to meet aristocrats in a palazzo and the lady prisoners who grow vegetables behind bars in Giudecca. In Stockholm, he tries to avoid skinny dipping at a traditional crayfish party.
