Episode 2 | Victoria
For over a hundred years we've bought cookbooks and recipe magazines. We've learned from television chefs and television contestants. We love home cooking so much, that even Hollywood star Naomi Watts passed up a date with Tom Cruise for her mum’s lamb roast.
If you were to drop a pin on a map of any regional town in Australia you will find the three supporting pillars of Aussie culture and cuisine: a pub, a bakery, and a Chinese restaurant. In this episode - we're heading to one of Australia's great food bowls in the Gippsland region and explore the delights of Ballarat in Victoria. We want to see what it is Australians love about simple home cooking and attempt to make the ultimate Aussie family meal.

Episode 3 | Tasmania & South Australia
From meat pie classics to the great Aussie culinary innovation of brunch, this episode has the best of both worlds across.
Whether you grab your pies from the freezer, scoff them down at the footy, or as a quickie at a late-night convenience store snack, some might say that meat pies are Australia's national dish. We're going to explore the not-so-humble versions of a classic Aussie pie and we'll even attempt to answer the most controversial question of all... Do you want sauce with that?

Episode 4 | Australia's Capital
We began this journey in the spiritual centre of Australia - Uluru. Now, as we approach the end, we're heading to the political capital, Canberra and the iconic Australian city, Sydney.
Icons like the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House are famous throughout the world. But what are Australia's iconic dishes? What are some dishes we all agree are pretty tops? Exploring cities built on lunches, power lunches, political lunches, and just plain lazy lunches, we go in search of what is Australia's favourite lunch. The answer? A simple sandwich of course; and what filling do they like best? We're about to find out.
