Customer Reviews

An inspirational chef in amazing surroundings
A marvellous set of part travelogue, part cookery show. Floyd is often dismissed as being simply a drunkard, knocking up food in nice locations and rambling on with his camera crew. Interestingly though, you'll often see him cited as a major influence on modern chefs.
This series includes some more unusual dishes from around the med, and encompasses more than just Italy, Spain and Greece - He goes round Turkey, and North Africa too.
Another thing about Floyd is that he comes across a bit 1950s Englishman when dealing with "the natives" but it is clear that there is an amazing amount of affection for people involved in country life and food production.
Theme music a bit dated though!!

Great show, but too short
Great show and a even greater Keith Floyd.
BUT, what happend to the 225 Minutes mentioned and promised run time?
There 9 Episodes 20 min each on these 2 DVD's = total 180 min.
No extra's, nothing.
Where are the missing 45 Minutes??

Great DVDs on food and travel
It's extremely interesting, informative and dynamic not only about food but travel as well. It's 100% worth seeing.
