French Culture and Scenery Video Review - Cooking French: The Cuisine of Burgundy and Southern France
First, let me tell you what 'Cooking French: The Cuisine of Burgundy and Southern France' is not. It is not a how-to-cook video. The video shows chefs cooking traditional French cuisine, but it is not specifically instructional. This Travel Channel video series also features French landmarks and some background information on the culture. Highlights include the preparation of coq au vin and a segment on the Beaujolais wine region.
It's nothing to run out to the rental store tonight for, but it may be worth the time for those interested in learning more about Beaujolais wines.
