Continuing his tantalising journey through the Middle East, Shane Delia hunts for unique flavours to fuse with his own home-grown dishes, this time in Turkey. A country brimming with cultural and culinary legacies of the Ottoman Empire, our host ponders life as a Sultan before participating in a public feast in Istanbul, demonstrating the modern intersection between religious tradition and cultural fasting. Beautifully filmed, the series takes the viewer along the Aegean coast, where the ongoing connection with fellow food connoisseurs, the Greeks, is alive and well. A visual masterpiece and generous showcase of Middle Eastern delicacies, this series is sure to set your tongue wagging – and watering!
