Synopsis:

After a year of being consumed by school dinners, Jamie Oliver is having some time off. On a quest to reignite his passion for foot he is setting off, in his VW! Camper van to the country that has inspired him the most: Italy. Join him on his exciting journey to capture the true essence of Italian cooking. On the way he learns from the real masters of Italian cuisine, the locals. Can he win over the Sicilians at a Palermo street market with his marinated grilled fish? Who will win the pasta making competition in Le Marche - Jamie or a local Mama? And watch as he cooks for his toughest critics yet in a fish restaurant, on the tiny island of Marettimo. What will the Italians make of Jamie and his food? Join Jamie on his travels as he cooks his way around the country that he loves most.

Jamie Oliver heads to Italy in his camper van to regain his passion for cooking. Jamie maps out a journey to rediscover what inspired his love of food in the first place. He's hoping that going back to basics, living off the land, meeting the locals and cooking up some traditional Italian food in his own style will be just what he needs. What will the Italians make of him, and can he and his food cut the mostardo in the Italian's backyard? From Sicily to Puglia to the mountain region of Le Marche, to the beautiful Amalfi Coast and lots of places in between, he packed in as much as he could and met so many friendly people - from lovely families who shared their recipes, to the market traders who gave him tips on how to cook their produce. Jamie's journey takes him off the beaten track to discover people who make up the real' Italy.

Jamie Oliver travels to Sicily, looking at the traditional food from there, and attempting to cook street food in a busy market.
