Six stories, six adventures, six original, unexpected stories, that are full of surprises, anecdotes and revelations, carried along by lively characters and incredible situations.

Sushi was the first fast food in history, chips have become a national treasure and sandwiches were canonised by the English aristocracy. More than being sometimes age-old dishes, more than being a tradition or a phenomenon - pizzas, ice cream, sandwiches, sushi, chips and pasta have become icons of the globalised world and play a major economic, cultural and social role in it.
All these simple local dishes have become universal and are now eaten all over the world. Yet universal as they are, in each country where they have been adopted, they are changed to suit the tastes of the inhabitants, giving rise to variations hailed as local specialities - from the hot pastrami sandwich in New York to the Hawaiian pizza, from mussels and chips in Brussels to American French fries - the culinary variations are endless!

An appetising series!
