Watching him now on Sunday Brunch is whetting my appetite for his new series. I like how his food is different from the normal run of the mill celeb chefs.He comes across very well on TV too.

Last night it was Majorca - made me wonder what I am doing back here!! Wonderful Island, wonderful food.

Lovely series this. More of a culinary travelogue.

Still yet to watch last weeks' recorded Crete, but really enjoyed Sardinia tonight. Lovely that many of the locals still proudly carry on their traditional crafts.

That 'ballooning' everlasting bread was amazing, & the shepherds' goat cheese & ricotta procedure was so basic, just the way it's always been done.

There weren't many recipes to easily copy at home - but liked the look of Yotam's ricotta fritters, & I have some S'Bury's giant couscous - so will definitely make that salad - sadly without the local mountain herbs!
