The competition is heating up… literally! Watch the trailer for the all new Koh Lanta, Thailand episode of BBC America’s all new original adventure-cooking-competition series NO KITCHEN REQUIRED – before the world premiere *** Tuesday May 15 at 10/9c *** only on BBC America. Immediately following a new episode of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares at 9/8c.
The chefs arrive in longboats on the shores of the island – home of the Uraklavoy Sea Gypsies, an ancient nomadic people who have survived for hundreds of years by fishing these waters. All three try their hands at traditional fishing techniques using handmade nets and traps. But for the first time, they must give up some of their catch to barter for the vegetables they need, just as they Uraklavoy do.
But the chefs must endure brutal heat as they cook to win on the sandy shores of the Andaman Sea. Will it be enough to impress their local judges?
From the creators of Chopped, NO KITCHEN REQUIRED follows three chefs as they are dropped into the most exotic and remote places on earth where they will work with the locals to hunt, fish and forage for ingredients to create a locally-inspired meal that will be judged by the community.
The three fearless chefs are:
* Award-winning New York restaurateur Michael Psilakis;
* First-ever Chopped Grand Champion Madison Cowan, who has roots in London, Detroit and Jamaica
and
* New Zealand chef Kayne Raymond.
The trio leave the comforts of their kitchens and are dropped into ten locations around the world including Belize, Dominica, New Zealand, Fiji, Chiang Mai, Thailand, Phuket, Thailand, Hawaii, New Mexico, Louisiana and Florida.
The series is hosted by British presenter Dr. Shini Somara (BBC’s One Show, BBC World News’ The Health Show) – who joins the chefs on the adventure.
