Traveling across Europe and North Africa, Jamie discovers as much about the people as the food. Heading off the tourist track, he finds authentic ingredients and extraordinary characters, preparing delicious recipes en route. From truffle and boar hunting in the French Pyrenees to spear fishing off an island near Athens, Jamie attempts to uncover the freshest, most authentic dishes; including the street food of Marrakesh, herring in Sweden and sweet prawns in Venice. He immerses himself in the diverse cultures, learning traditional cooking practices from the locals and taking part in their cultural ceremonies. Review 'Jamie is effortlessly charismatic' --NY Times'The Friendly Food Guru...' --LA Times Review: Formidable! - Wonderful film – about food to be sure, but also about life in a small French village. I have spent a lot of time in France, mostly in Normandy and Alsace as well as Paris, and, while this village is in many ways quite different, the approach to food is what I remember best. The French, from Michelin 3-star restaurants to the corner bistro, take food seriously. They know what they’re cooking, they know how to cook it, they know and are willing to explain what’s in it. They want you to enjoy your meal and will be deeply saddened if you don’t. They will also make every effort to make certain you do enjoy it. For example, I am allergic to eggs. When we stopped in any French hotel I would first thing go and find the local bakery and explain my problem and ask that they make a special loaf for me in the morning. French baguettes are not made with eggs but are often brushed with dorure, an egg wash, to give them color and sheen. The baker would always agree to have a loaf ready for me in the morning on which only milk would be used as a wash. Another example. Many years ago, when the dollar bought 5 French francs, we treated ourselves to dinner at L'Auberge de l’Ill, a 3-star restaurant in the Alsatian town of Illhaeusern. It is very beautiful in a bucolic setting and is truly one of the great restaurants of the world. We ordered lobster boats to start – a schooner-shaped pastry in a lobster sauce. But first I of course told the waiter of my allergy; he called over the captain, who assured me there would be no egg in my lobster boat. When it was served some time later – of course everything is cooked to order – the sauce sure looked egg-based to me. I asked my wife to taste hers and she agreed there was egg in the sauce. Enormously disappointed – this was a very expensive dish even with the favorable exchange rate – I waved for the captain and told him that I could not eat this dish because, as my wife confirmed, there was clearly egg in it. Oh, Monsieur, he exclaimed, your wife did not indicate that she was allergic to eggs, only you, so of course, while the dish normally is made with eggs, there is not the slightest particle of egg in yours. And indeed there wasn’t. Well, we did not usually eat in 3-star or even 1-star restaurants but in every restaurant in France we always got that kind of knowledgeable and accommodating service. The simple bistros were very like the restaurants in this film where food rules and brings together people from different walks of life. We also noticed the dogs which can be found in all but the fanciest restaurants in France, though they would be absolutely barred in the US or the UK. Most of all the atmosphere of the restaurants Jamie features is spot on and is what makes France different – different from any other place on earth – different in the best possible way. Review: This was really better than I expected - This was really better than I expected. I really enjoy Jamie and his sensibilities around food and culture, but I only had a lukewarm feeling about this title when I saw it on Prime, but, being a fan, I watched it anyway. Very good, very entertaining as always, very educational. I want to go to the Pyrenees now. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0058MX99Y | | Actors | Oliver, Jamie | | Best Sellers Rank | #95,688 in Movies & TV ( See Top 100 in Movies & TV ) #65,985 in DVD | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (135) | | Director | Salah, Lana | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | QUES4040DVD | | MPAA rating | NR (Not Rated) | | Media Format | Box set, Color, Multiple Formats, NTSC | | Number of discs | 6 | | Product Dimensions | 7.5 x 0.7 x 5.4 inches; 1 Pounds | | Release date | November 1, 2011 | | Run time | 4 hours and 49 minutes | | Studio | Questar (IL) | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Oliver, Jamie, Salah, Lana - **Format:** Box set, Color, Multiple Formats, NTSC - **Language:** English - **Number Of Discs:** 6 - **Runtime:** 4 hours and 49 minutes ## Images ![Jamie Oliver's Food Escapes - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wCJ9miOCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Formidable! *by S***E on April 14, 2015* Wonderful film – about food to be sure, but also about life in a small French village.

He has a great time embracing the ... *by M***N on April 7, 2017* I have never watched Jamie Oliver before this show. I quite enjoyed it. He has a great time embracing the local culture and traditions while cooking. It's authentic. I then googled Jamie and saw the controversy about Jamie slitting a conscious lamb's throat. This series shows some hunting, which I consider the most humane way to eat meat. The animals live the way nature intended before death...in a quick instantaneous shot. And as for the lamb....it's life. It's not cruel to show children and adults a lovingly raised animal that is being slaughtered humanly for supper. I would argue that it is cruel to remain ignorant to the great sacrifice animals give, so that we can enjoy meat. With that honesty comes a profound respect for how great a gift meat is. In this series, Jamie's respect for culture, tradition, cooking and all of the ingredients shines. As does a sincere joy of cooking. I am now a fan. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/3523294-jamie-olivers-food-escapes](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/3523294-jamie-olivers-food-escapes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
