On the Circle of Existence there is place for every food,

every species, every race, every tree and every plant.

It is this completeness of Life that must be respected

in order to bring about harmony on this planet.

- Pythagoras

Synopsis

For a great number of people, food often symbolizes mother’s kitchen, wonderful childhood memories, friendship, family, happiness and new beginnings.

Apart all these significant emotions, each part of our fascinating TV Series will contain pertinent and compelling information on the powerful restoring and curing capabilities of certain foods and culinary ingredients. Myths will be presented and distinguished from reality-checked verities, with an accent on offering knowledgeable and sensible advice. From the diets of ancient civilizations to the modern time, (with the United Kingdom as a sample of multicultural gastronomy), our work will bring forward the alternative, healing aspect of the culinary art, for balance and tranquility.

This unique voyage around the world, punctuated by enthralling historical characters, dreamy locations and hearty, colourful dishes, could bring forward to a wide international audience, strong feelings of humility, pride and gratitude, as well as an understanding of the infinite capacity of meal-sharing to bring people together.
