Never faint of heart, on the last leg of his Filipino tour Peter Kuruvita puts superstitious murmurings aside and heads to the voodoo island of Siquijor in the Philippines – a place not often visited by tourists. Here, Peter has his skepticism tested by a local faith healer and cooks a dish with its own natural medicinal value, before sailing to the nearby party island of Bohol. On Bohol, Peter samples the Filipino national dish of adobo, makes a festive favourite dish on a party beach, and prepares a common Filipino dessert in the picturesque Chocolate Hills.
Peter Kuruvita ventures into some of the world's most fascinating island communities, where he discovers the vibrant intricacies of island life, tradition, passion and flair behind local cuisines and customs.
