In a new 6 x 30 min TV series, Australian chef, Wanitha takes us to her roots in Malaysia, to the best backstreet restaurants and food stalls, not on the tourist map.
A vibrant program full of ideas and insights, unique characters and tips to enrich your culinary
experience of modern Malaysia.
In each episode, Wanitha takes us inside a different district, its food culture and traditions. As she introduces wonderful
characters and exotic locations, she sets herself new and unlikely
cooking challenges. She risks failure each step of the way, making us laugh and infecting us with her love of food, flavours, aromas and the people who prepare it. Compelling viewing.
The journey begins in her home town, on the island of Penang and then takes us right across Malaysia, to Sabah and Sarawak. As she travels, Wanitha’s magnetic personality quickly engages new friends.
Once accepted, she tests herself against the ordinary working professionals of the Malaysian food industry.
From street vendors to chefs in the best restaurants and private homes of high society, Wanitha finds her way into their kitchens and into our hearts.
As Wanitha explores the food chain, from the local fishermen and farmers through to restaurateurs and consumers, we rediscover how we are all fundamentally connected.
