Cadiz, Palermo, Copenhagen... Rick Stein goes in search of good food in fabulous locations, and all of them just a hop, skip and a jump from the UK. Ties in with a major 10 episode series, the first half of which has already aired on BBC2. Another five programmes are set for around publication

To accompany the major BBC Two series, Rick Stein's Long Weekends is a mouthwatering collection of over 100 recipes from ten European cities. Rick's recipes are designed to cater for all your weekend meals. For a quick Friday night supper Icelandic breaded lamb chops will do the trick, and Huevos a la Flamenca makes a tasty Saturday brunch. Viennese Tafelspitz is perfect for Sunday lunch, and of course no weekend would be complete without Portuguese custard tarts or Berliner Doughnuts for an afternoon treat.

Accompanied by beautiful photography of the food and locations, and complemented by his personal memories and travel tips for each city, Rick will inspire you to re-create the magic of a long weekend in your own home.
