For the series premiere, Reichl and actress Frances McDormand traveled to Blackberry Farm, where they go fly-fishing, beekeeping, and cook Southern recipes. In other episodes, Reichl travels to Marrakech, Morocco for lessons on couscous and tagines with Lorraine Bracco and then to Bath, England, to learn the secrets of homemade bread with Dianne Wiest. Then she fishes in Seattle with Tom Skerritt and explores New York City’s Indian community with Jeffrey Wright.[3]
