Michelin Star cooking in a motorhome: Eating local while travelling

As travelling tourists in our motorhomes, campervans and caravans, we have a unique ability to make an impact on the local economies we visit. Staying in a destination means that we can spend money and help small businesses be it cafes, shops, attractions or campsites.

In this special episode, we are doing something a little different. Matt has been challenged to source a motorhome feast all from within a few miles of our camp. By sourcing local foods and produce, we endeavour to taste the destination and enjoy more of what the region has to offer, all of which is to be prepared and cooked in our lovely Adria Twin campervan with a 2 burner gas hob and a small grill.

Now, it's safe to say Matt is no culinary expert, which is why we've enlisted the help of a professional, Mr Matthew Pennington, who owns the local Michelin Green star restaurant, The Ethicurean in Wrington. Matthew has kindly agreed to show us how a meal in a campervan can be sourced locally, affordable, simple to cook and even fit for an award-winning restaurant.

Our challenge to you is rather than purchasing food at home before you travel, arrive at your destination and visit the local shops, find the region's flavours and taste the destination. Make a difference to the local economies you visit and have a positive impact on the businesses there.

Thank you to The Ethicurean Restaurant for sponsoring this episode, and special thanks to its owner, Matthew, for spending a day to help produce this episode and cook this incredible meal.

We also wish to thank The Barley Wood Walled Garden, Aldwick Estate wines, Yeo Valley, Circumstance Distillery and Lyecross Farm shop.
