a stylish and comes with warranties. how do. keep coming up with new and exciting ideas and find rare and exotic ingredients well some work with so-called food scouts over in the u.s. food scouts have been around for a while but it's a new profession here in germany. is one of the 1st. what does it take to be a food scout you need to be armed to the teeth always on the hunt hardly much more important our sight smell and taste. as foods go outside surveillance grounds i look for extraordinary projects here in franconia my varia for us to use in our goal my restaurant alexander how much. your fault will sometimes travel several 100 kilometers a day to scout we 1st followed him to visit sebastian solomon who breed sturgeon's

and produces caviar a. little bit but it would be about possible to his tasting a very special version of this delicacy whites to golden caviar from albino sturgeon's. the food scout was impressed. stars at 3 euros per gram albino caviar is about 3 times as expensive as black caviar. that it's pretty rare which is why i'm very happy it works so well by sebastian's and yet it means we can offer these regional caviar in a restaurant and that's very special to. us. and next the food scott went to sebastian needed my ass found in bomb back in southern germany it wasn't a restful visit to the pair dug up one metre long roots from the soil trying not to damage them that we never got lots of juice in them and the more you damage them

the more juice comes out that's a sign of quality and if i want to follow that and hold them out but i rip them then i need to stop from the beginning again a little but the only extraordinary specialties worth this much work what the 2 men are after are licorice roots these are usually found in west asia and are used for making licorice. but how does licorice root fit into gourmet cooking york this freshly secured treasures to the restaurant to head chef to b.s. bates for tasting and quality assessment 1st the albino caviar. it doesn't have much flavor yet because it's so fresh. both agree that the sturgeon roast still needs to develop its full flavor so should be left a few more days. next to the food scout and head chef brainstorm ideas for including

licorice on their menu. for this series holds its i can see the licorice featuring in some talk or dessert there is time maybe combined with chocolate and fruit. and that's exactly how it was served licorice and chocolate were combined in a black truffle which was finally shaved onto a plum sorbet. the team in the gourmet restaurant has already won 2 michelin stars. there is also a fine keystroke kitchen which serves carefully composed dishes. scouts and finds ingredients for both bistro and restaurant. exotic fruits tend to lose a lot of flavor on long haul flights so the food scout gets them locally at klein even palm house and. a fruit safari for star cuisine woman i'll be there on an answer but today the hunch is for spice it's

a. flu and we've called olivia and while chilean down there is a type of china each a little there's a tie to the all you know your cost fault isn't only here for the chili's he's also after their leaves. at 1st the head chef is baffled. as off muds when the greens are often just cut off without some mistake here with the chili foliage it makes sense to keep them with. well you say you again saw something no one else word here is the good and the leaves ships hippies trips to vegas my sea modifies the 2 digits truly chips the leaves are tossed in tempera batter and then deep fried in hot oil. next to b.s. baits coats the green chips with a fiery chili paste. that

is it surprising that it gets out of that spicy but sensational you really come up with something special here. caviar from the albino sturgeon licorice roots from a farm in bam back and spicy chips made from chile leaves. and with that food scout your cost bald heads off on a new journey there's still a lot more to discover. designing and building churches has probably always been one of the most challenging faiths in architecture to vote for the he is from france and he's a devoted churchgoer of those not so much because he's religious he visits them as a traveling photographer and he's always on the lookout for new subjects. for me it's definitely the architecture and the power of this modern architecture

through the 20th century. they always have a central point of view in that the churches are always empty. so my goal is really just to create a sort of. feeling so that people can you know immerse themselves in the architecture. t.-bo quarrying seeks out modern churches around the world for his photo series sacred spaces. like notre dame to try in paris it's original it's different from anything you could have seen and also it has this visual impact with the the difference of materials with you know the wood the steel the lighting is very very interesting and it isn't the. you know the workers of that era so it also has

a very emotional. impact i think on the whole neighborhood. this perspective presents the architecture in the best possible light. and yeah you see in this one what's really beautiful is that the pillars are you know all aligned so you really want them to be you know popping out of the photo so in that way you know the architecture speaks for itself there is no destructions it's always the same the same angle and when you put them all you know next to each other they're all very different but you get a cohesive. feeling of you know all the different churches. tivo portrays lives in paris he discovered his passion for modern churches 4 years ago since then he's photographed 36 of them in europe and asia. the most difficult part is finding them. because. when you start the series

basically you start from 0 and there is a few that are kind of famous but most of them are not so it's it's mainly finding all the all the churches in the remote spaces so you would maybe never passed by and you would actually not imagine what this is like maybe offices but not really. maybe a museum. this is notre dame to lash to learn young's a cube shaped church on the outskirts of paris what the church is can very very radically and i think the reinterpreted what a church is. with the architecture because the church is fairly basic and it's huge you know there's. the central park that's always there and then basically people sit around it. she bows approach is always the so. he looks around chooses a point of view and takes

a single shot. that's it. at home he makes only minor corrections to the image most of the work is already done to bill is actually an interior designer and for him photography is just a hobby get his photo series have attracted attention around the globe. like his project sleeping in venice from 2018 he was able to capture almost surreal looking images of the city on the venetian lagoon. venice without the madding crowd. since 2015 probably has also been taking pictures of libraries around the world this photo series is his most famous work to date. it's a specific space that everybody understand you know libraries or churches everybody's been there at least once in their lives. and they were made for

a specific reason and so what i really find interesting how these architects have you know created. you know these different buildings but with the say the same purpose. one of his favorite churches is notre dame do not sell it in paris he feels that the round concrete structure emanates a sense of tranquility. i guess i'm a pretty cool guy i mean i like it when i'm alone in these places because you actually get to experience the architecture in a very different way you know you know. it's just for it seems like it's been built just for you when you're there and you can witness it for however you perceive it. and in the photos people can imagine themselves in in the picture. for his photo series sacred spaces

a testament to faith in the power of modern architecture. if you're visiting the netherlands in the next 2 weeks you may also want to stop by the city savalas that's where europe's biggest ice sculpture festival is taking place until the 1st of march artists from around the world cough to $500.00 tons of ice and snow into beautiful scotus which takes us on a journey through time. from dinosaurs to cleopatra. to the vikings. and the industrial revolution they see as ice sculpture festival in the ducktown of the lands visitors travel through time. people flock to the festival from all over to marvel at the statues which are made of around $550.00 tons of snow and ice.

bundled up against the cold they take photos of the sculptures and enjoy the magical atmosphere. ever of a very impressive i'm coming from the tropics to see these under their roof and i have in these eyes all churches for me for this i didn't think it was possible yeah homelands to take photographs after you know mark knopfler. it's amazing if it's a big goal because. it's ok. i'm here for a 1st time i'm shooting a. picture of. some 40 ice carvers from all over the world descended on saul and they spent 2 weeks carving the sculptures out of ice and snow he has found more of it's from germany is working on a statue of shaka zulu one of the most influential zulu monarchs. if you need to make the details is a good enjoyable part because if you do everything right you see everything wrote

together is. striving for artistic perfection is not the only challenge the canvas face the temperature inside the hole is about minus 10 degrees celsius so it's hard to stay warm the blocks of ice are up to 2 metres tall and it's a tough job to sculpt them using sharp chisels and chainsaws. it's hard work at the end of the day everybody if you have the shoulder or arm was. the change and the preferred mode of danger the good work that you. were my friend your daughter endured broken down. most of the carvers are professional artists they travel the world to sculpt ice and snow but they also work as traditional stone sculptures graffiti artists. the ice sculpture festival is always a highlight of their year. this is more of a fun thing to do coming to europe and and working on

a big scale that you don't get to do this kind of thing normally go quickly. once the carvers hard work is completed visitors can enjoy the giant works of art complemented by colorful lights and atmospheric music. this year's theme of journey through time allows visitors to see important historical figures and witness pivotal moments in history up close. just like previous years we're always looking for a theme that's familiar all around the world for all ages and with all these stories throughout the time it's a perfect fit. your hands might get cold but the dutch ice sculpture festival is definitely a heartwarming event. just about
