“Epicurean Tourist” follows host Paige Simmons as she travels around the globe meeting with culinary chefs, liquid chefs, sommeliers, gardeners and those who preserve culture through food.  Epicurean Tourist is more than just another cooking show with chefs demonstrating their favorite recipes.  It’s about the culture and history behind the great recipes of the world. Our guests share their country’s pride, life stories, local hot spots, favorite dishes and traditional techniques used for preparing the dishes that define their culture.  Come with us and you’ll discover some exciting adventures for the gastronome and great places to visit on your next trip abroad.  

 

Ingredients are key, so Epicurean Tourist will take you to local markets and gardens to find out what herbs, produce and staples distinguish each culture’s culinary style.  Paige will also show you where to find these ingredients in your own backyard.
