We are used to seeing Gordon Ramsey in the comfort of the kitchen, but he will be far from one on Nat Geo’s Uncharted. He is going to travel the World to experience some of the scrumptious local cuisines unique to that area.
He will not try them out in a restaurant but instead, he will eat them in their natural habitat. On tomorrow’s season premiere at 10p he will climb up a mountain in Peru and find himself 10,000″ above sea level. When he gets there, he will realize why he made the dangerous treck. In the coming weeks, he will travel to New Zealand’s Rugged South, The Mountains of Morocco, Hawaii’s Hana Coast, The Mighty Mekong of Laos and Alaska’s Panhandle.
Each week, his tour guide will be a local chef that will take him to the places that make their local delicacies the best on the planet. While the view is absolutely spectacular, the ingredients native to the area are just as amazing.
Imagine a man, who built his life on food, experiencing new recipes that will make his mouth water. Not only tasting the delicious meals but also seeing the stunning places they come from.
He has been all over the globe with his cooking shows. However, this series takes him out into the environment to meet the people who make the items on his plate taste so yummy. A chef is only as good as their ingredients, and these ingredients are made with love and care. Generations have worked on these crops to preserve their one-of-a-kind flavor.
I am only a few minutes into the series premiere and I think it might be Ramsay’s most interesting show to date. It is nice to see him get his hands dirty. Along with other body parts too.
