https://www.eater.com/2018/7/26/176...charted-tv-show-national-geographic-unchartedRamsay now wants to parachute into foreign food cultures and show the locals he can cook their cuisines better than they can. In each episode of Uncharted, according to a press release, the celebrity chef will take in the traditional foodways, attempt to go about "discovering the undiscovered," and finally engage in a kitchen competition against the locals, "pitting his own interpretations of regional dishes against the tried-and-true classics."
This is like the anti-Bourdain unless he loses almost all the time to the locals.
MOD EDIT: Adding press release explaining the show concept.
Each episode of UNCHARTED will include three key ingredients: unlocking a culture's culinary secrets through exploration and adventure with local food heroes, no matter where they may lead him; tracking down high-octane traditions, pastimes and customs that are specific to the region in hopes of discovering the undiscovered; and, finally, testing Ramsay against the locals, pitting his own interpretations of regional dishes against the tried-and-true classics. The series moves beyond conversation to truly immerse Ramsay in all aspects of the local culture to better prepare him for the final friendly cooking competition with local chefs and foodies.
Join Ramsay as he scales roofs of caves to harvest fresh nests in Malaysian Borneo and puts fear aside to hunt tarantulas in Cambodia. Ramsay will travel through cities and remote areas, experiencing local challenges underwater, across mountains and through the jungle, and explore each location's extraordinary cultures, to uncover what it really takes to obtain each special ingredient.
