Rick Stein's Secret France (DVD)

In Rick Stein's Secret France, a new six-part series on BBC Two, Rick Stein sets off on a new culinary adventure to search for France's best kept gastronomic secrets.
Roaming the length and breadth of the country in his car, Rick will leave the main routes and tourist hotspots behind to embark on a very personal road trip along picturesque and remote backroads.
He will travel the Normandy coastline and the Bay of Somme, to Provence, Champagne and Alsace, as well as lesser-known regions of Jura, Auvergne, Perigord and southern Roussillon. He'll eat at both traditional and innovative restaurants, visit markets and delve into local history. While Rick is no stranger to France, he will encounter local chefs, farmers, artisans, vineyard owners and expats - all of whom reveal new insights into the country's ever-changing culture and cuisine.
