Description

Heston Blumenthal owns one of the world's finest restaurants. He's famous for his unique approach to food and his experimental style of cooking which has set him poles apart from other chefs.

In this exhilarating series, Blumenthal reinvents gastronomy. Searching through age-old recipes, the "culinary alchemist" challenges himself to recreate them as the food of the future. For each unforgettable feast he invites six celebrities to dinner, but they soon discover these are no ordinary dinner parties. Stimulating and provoking all the senses, Blumenthal pushes the boundaries and takes dining to a whole new level, creating extreme food adventures, true "dinner magic". Blumenthal goes to extraordinary lengths to recreate the Mad Hatter's Tea Party from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland; bakes four and twenty blackbirds inside a pie; combines a variety of animals to create a mythical beast that's part lamb, part goose, part hog and part chicken; stimulates his guests with ejaculating cakes; and fashions an entirely edible scene based on the Christmas carol Good King Wenceslas.

What can you say…not like your average foodie show. Well worth it if you are interested in cooking and science. It is amazing stuff.

5 stars "The most amazing recipes you'll NEVER cook!"

An amazing and often hilarious series full of fanciful dishes and mad experiments. Heston pushes all the culinary boundaries to recreate the most extravagent excesses of historical banqueting. Spellbinding & inspiring – but don't attempt these dishes lightly, if at all! You won't be able to stop watching though!

 
 
Review by Pamela on 26th March, 2011
"Better than on TV as no ads & kids can watch"

Kids have not been able to stay up late enough to watch but were very interested to see the food and how it was made. No ads so easier to watch. Great fun.
