In Search of Food: Would you go 1500 miles for a meal? Well, that’s how far the average entrée travels to arrive on your plate! Now there’s a new breed of foodie and they won’t eat anything unless it’s grown in their own region. Look out: here come the Locavores In Search of Food! Each episode master chef and proud foodie Scott Pampuch travels across the nation hunting for homegrown heroes of the artisanal food movement.
The DaVinci List: Meet the modern culinary artists who have transformed their fields. This Ovation original is hosted by Matt and Ted Lee (“The Lee Bros.”) and profiles 10 high-profile chefs and culinary icons, such as Eric Ripert (Le Bernardin), Michael Voltaggio (ink.), Marcus Samuelsson (Red Rooster), and Jonathan Waxman (Barbuto).
Mexican Fiesta: Renowned chef Peter Kuruvita embarks on a breathtaking journey of culinary discovery through the vibrant, mouth-watering world of Mexican cuisine. His mission is to uncover the heart of Mexico’s food culture and let the passion of its people inspire his own take on some of their most prized dishes.
David Rocco’s Dolci Napoli: Chef David Rocco travels to Naples, Italy: one of the world’s oldest cities and a treasure trove for foodies and travel junkies. Famous for its music, museums, and thriving arts, this Southern Italian city is also the birthplace of pizza and espresso, and it is the perfect place for David to embark on a culinary adventure. He uncovers some of its hidden gems and explores the surrounding scenic islands of Capri, Ischia, Procida, and the Sorrento peninsula. Through David, we get to know the proud and passionate Neapolitans and experience the real Naples: gritty, colorful, vibrant, and full of life.
