Exploring.China.A.Culinary.Adventure.Episode.2.PDTV.XviD-Tellymad

China - the superpower the world fears, but few really know. Ken Hom,
the godfather of Chinese cuisine, and Ching-He Huang, leading chef of
the contemporary generation, together undertake an epic 3000-mile
culinary adventure across China - not only to reveal its food, but its
people, history, culture and soul.

Ken and Ching explore the effects of sweeping modernisation in China's
fastest growing city, Chengdu. It is the capital of Sichuan province,
where the locals cling on to their identity through food. Here, in one
of the culinary capitals of the country, they explore the complex and
almost addictive spices that set Sichuan food apart and make it the most
memorable of all Chinese cuisines. And in a desire to get under the skin
of the city, they explore the back streets in search of the most
authentic dishes and traditional snacks. They also visit homes and
restaurants to banish the gloomy Sichuan climate with some hot and fiery
cooking.
