As a child traveling cross-country with his parents, from California to Georgia, young Alton Brown saw first-hand how regional food in America changed with the landscape. The seeds for a future television show were planted on that fateful trip. Several decades later, this experience of a young boy took root as Alton pitched a new travel food show idea to Food Network executives.
Alton Brown’s latest installment of his culinary journeying program is Feasting on Waves. In this four part series, Alton ditches the motorcycles for a sailboat as he explores the islands of the Caribbean. Still searching for authentic food and foodways, Alton discovers a melting pot of cuisines and cultures in the tropical setting.
