as a playground for the rich and famous here. the chef has opened his 2nd restaurant in cooperation with luxury brand. louie, the tall guests can expect a combination of international flavors. maurie sucka wants to open up classic french cuisine to something new. but i could do that. mike was in is largely influenced by my background and my passion. i bring it all together to create something unique in french cuisine. and i guess let me pull these especially include japanese and african influences which characterize the meals at his restaurants. maurice sucka grew up with his parents of molly and senegalese origin, near paris. in addition to his classical training as a chef, he was also influenced by the food he knew from his childhood. because did you live when i opened my restaurant in paris? i was looking for all these traditional recipes. i asked my mother, how do you do this? how do you do that? i learned a lot in the process. you know what i used to eat whatever she cooked,

but not actually care about how she prepared it. that is about if it had mark on my live it guess in sample pay clearly like what marie psychos new cuisine has to offer them. this is the val, it's a perfect. it's a little bit of everything. so many different flavors to discovery. given the temperatures here, it's nice and cool. the way it tastes excellent, very interesting. the food was incredible. the presentation was act plans and it's a really nice setting to just enjoy marie psychos success is validation for his concept. the club is this roster. the secret to my success, i think as that i am so passionate about what i do. i think the guests noticed that i really try to do what i know and what i feel more and do it as honestly as possible. if i maintain the sincerity, nothing should go wrong. yeah, that i said something here for the webinar. for maury, soco,

creating new dishes and flavor combinations is always an emotional process that comes from the heart. he's no fan of strict rules, but what we love out of the most important thing is to be free to have the freedom to play with different inspirations and ingredients that you find and want to use it to be able to compose freely to enjoy yourself and have body, but more i think that if you have joy in your work, more than the guests will notice and will enjoy the flu with the probably damages of, of his eccentric creations and willingness to experiment had made maurice echo one of the most popular chefs in france and he's now dreaming of also opening a restaurant in africa. looks amazing. all right, well the mountain village of caribbean in switzerland is one of many alpine towns that has seen its population to window. there are many reasons for this. it's too

remote. it's hard to reach, and there are simply no jobs available. what now there is hope for karuba because a young family has moved in, and they are working to attract visitors with a restaurant and a hotel. but their accommodation operates with a very special concept in mind. ah, ernesta is 2 and a half years old. and the 1st child in this small swiss mountain village of cody bowen, about 50 years. his parents threw everything overboard and came here a year ago. does it have auto and jeremy gary are helping turn curry po into a hotel village? they run in aust area and rent out rooms and some of the old abandoned stone houses . the village in the to chino region once had 300 inhabitants, but now there are just 9 counting her nest. oh and his parents with yeah,

you got one focus. we heard about this project by chance, and we saw it as an opportunity to do something together. math. at 1st we had a lot of doubts if that, but we wanted to give it a shot more, but i'm in de la now. it really seems to be working from the netherland. we hope it stays that way. okay, a lot. i said i haven't been in the hotel has a total of 10 rooms so far, but they call it an hour better go to food. so a hotel that spread out across the village. the alley ways are the hallways and corridors of the hotel. the austria is the main building and reception area. deseret bottle is trained in the hospitality branch, was jeremy gary is a gourmet chef. and most of us soon if you could, i'd then we're passionate about our work, the hotel, the cuisine, the choice of ingredients and hospitality. good. yeah, it's a tough job and, but we really enjoy it in the future to much diversity. morgan, molten. if i and i think, but we can't handle everything on our own, we have employees and that live ins, things up here,

west on kit every day. crypto is a listed site, so they were only allowed to make minimal changes when restoring it. the rooms are named after the people who once lived here the residence left the village because it was no longer possible to make a living here through forestry or farming. a foundation tasked with saving cory bo from decay came up with the village hotel concept and bought 10 old buildings. jeremy gary refers to use local products to cook in the hotel, austria like polenta from the village mill cripple lies to the north of lake majority. and the surrounding nature attracts many hikers and sport enthusiasts. it's the 1st season for the new out better go to who so. but already on the weekend

it's fully booked. it seem holy, easy artifacts. it's a good idea to create jobs in remote valleys. i grew up in a mountain village myself. i was thus finish it. it's very innovative and a way to get people back into these valleys, to enjoy the peace and quiet, and the landscape, the awakening of the long term view locals labs hope the project will bring their village back to line. also assisted. it's okay with me. the hotel doesn't bother us, because otherwise the village would die out over time. because the few of us left here aren't young anymore. down middle nest though, attends a kindergarten in the valley below. it's a 15 minute drive away. desi rave, watch l. as glad these gotten used to village live semen involve a multiple keep caught in this tiny place, every one knows every one and, and as to likes it. he says there is valentino, drinking a coffee,

mac jato upon food. and when we go up stairs, he yells by max by savannah, russia. he knows every one and that's great yada soon. another 2 rooms are due to be added to the alberto diffuser because the hotel is doing so well, at least in summer. they want to stay open all year round. the french swiss couple aren't afraid of getting low lee in winter. in invent, physically in the winter of the austria will be more important. not so much the hotel and the people that we need time. but we're just getting started. but we're pretty competent about deseret block til and her family had comfortable lives down in the valley before moving up to this remote mountain village. but they haven't regretted their decision for even one minute. anyone who wants to become a german citizen and receive a german passport must fulfill a series of requirements. and one of them is

a citizenship test. and that is considered to be so difficult that even some germans have a hard time passing it well. with this in mind, my british colleague, rachel stuart, said not to create her own version of a citizenship test and it certainly reveals some interesting things about germans and their way of life. ah, reco, welcome to your citizenship test, please take seat. how do you wish them luck? and jim and again. ah, yes, rachel rachel? i pushed the solemn city down question one, which values could you live by? as a gentleman? thou shalt grumble. thou shalt be brutally honest. thou shall care your rooms

regularly. question to you're going to spend a typical german weekend 1st up breakfast, which of the following items do not belong on the table? g sliced meat, toast, bread. well, it's frowned upon. much better to have them fresh bread rolls, butter, jam, coffee, nearly yoga, baked beans, egg. tea with milk. i don't know what they're missing. what should you be doing at $815.00 p. m. on a sunday ha. bladder advised this one every sunday at 815 p. m, i'll sit down in front of my tv to watch the german colt crime shows taught. do you think i can tell that i don't actually like top off like i next imagine you come to a pedestrian crossing and the red man is showing does not a single car in sight. what do you do? a cross the road or b. wait for the green man. i've made that mistake before. even got caught by the

police and had to pay a fine. every good german nose. you do not disobey the redman. zeus now it's time for your physical test test. ah, the legendary german supermarket test. okay, no chit chat with the cashier, there's not gonna be much space to pack and there's going to be lots of people muttering behind you. speed is the name of the game. after on your mars, get sad to go to the cupboard. i say, thanks you too. oh, i love one turn over the page and stare at it for one minute without crying.

yes. what's this points will be deducted for incorrectly marked answers? the germans there tick. when can i get the result? 10 weeks? i love jem, and bureaucracy v and made rugs are symbolic of the far east, many of them produced in iran or afghanistan. but here in europe, intricate hand woven carpets have long been on the wayne since machine manufacturing has replaced traditional weavers. however, there is a one place in a small town in bulgaria that proudly still makes persian style rugs by hand. following a centuries old technique. but we went there to watch. the process takes shape, ah, craftsmanship, natural dies,

mathematics, persian style carpets are the pride and joy of this bulgarian nino pod pool of his work has been in demand around the world for over 2 decades for its certificate physical dinner. we have gained a lot of experience over the years. oh, dig nadeau at the peak of our success in hotels. i even met with the royal family in england. her carlson. prince charles is among the admirers of mino, pud, pool of carpets. the manufacture and bulgaria can meet the exacting standards set by the royals. he can produce exceptionally large, extravagant designs that are also true to the originals. these carpets in britain's wild palaces look exactly like their historical counterparts from centuries past. due me than a child, according to prince charles, we're the last people in the world who can reproduce theirs. their knowledge and skill passed down from generation to generation only. here is

a priceless asset in years naples lives at the curb. we are the last weavers of these carpets in europe. i think we should keep this tradition alive because it is something of great value as a symbol among the special qualities of these new carpets. faithful to historical originals are the vibrant colors. these cauldron are used to infuse the natural pigments into the wall. it takes mathematical precision to achieve just the right color tones. that is nino pod pool of responsibility his immense knowledge. the secrets of the color formulas are preserved in a hand written note book. he also my, my had to make sure that the colors of the carpet are exactly what the cost ordered, but that's why i work with 6500 pigments which are then used to create the many colors before he started doing it to kill me. no more, no problem. ah,

the homeless carpet manufacturer is located about 150 kilometers from the bulgarian capital. sophia, in the little village of cas donovan time seems to have stood still here. the clock seemed to take more slowly than in the big city. the carpet weavers also come from costano val, depending on how big a carpet is and how many colors are needed, it can take up to 10 months to create one carpet. another secret of persian style carpets are their ingenious knots. the thread forms the pattern on both sides. persian carpets got their name from the region where this method of weaving originated persia in what is now iran. a grid system is used to divide the pattern into small squares. precision is key. quality checks are made

for every few centimeters. single mistakes can destroy a whole carpet and put the family business in jeopardy. the weaver is bare a lot of responsibility. so the big new in an ordinary weaver working here wouldn't be able to handle this many colors. there are up to $240.00 colors in a single carpeted vestige citizenship. it is this magnificent variety that distinguishes hand made persian style carpets, industrially produced goods have only a few colors. in co stumble, however, each piece gets its own pattern and color combination and thus its own price. a carpet can cost several tens of thousands of euros for each new pattern. the weavers have to have extra training, fussy, fuzzy, you have to be patient, you have to be attentive. you have to focus on the carpet all the time. persian

carpets became popular in europe in the early 16th century. back then, they decorated european palaces with animal tree and flower motifs. they have become an integral part of european culture, also developing their own motifs. here in cust hon. this culture and tradition is being kept alive. as you know, walking is one of the best forms of exercise and it's become trendy to count how many steps you've taken. or d, w reporter, actual primavera. he took counting steps to another level when he decided to climb up over $4000.00 wooden steps in norway. $4444.00 to be exact and now was just one way. or we went along to

see if he really made it to the top. this the with, it's around 6 o'clock in the morning. i want to carry a very foss ferry and i'm on my way to my next adventure. it's all about for only $4444.00. it's the allegedly highest wooden staircase in the world. this slowly stance on one of norway's many fjords and to find out of europe, the ferry, the parts from star vonda. it's the only way to reach the wooden staircase. ah, young lateness is my guy today. she's been showing hackers round the region for years. the staircase begins at the bottom near the be quite building the old hydro

electric plant. it offense to a mountain over 700 meters high. now you listen to me and you do in my temple because then you're going to feel it's going to be a great trip ticket though, like this. ah, the staircase was built along with a raised end pipes for the hydro electric plant in the early 19 hundreds can take so far as the sets they are really narrow. so you have to be really careful with each single step. and for me it's quite hard to keep the pay. so being so slow, but i think yan is probably really right, is taking, it's close to the right choice if you really want to make it a bare here

. are you kidding me? i yes, this is going to be a good a food easy. ah . they say they been toughest sometimes the hydro electric plant workers had to climb these stairs every day. okay. this is exhausting and what i learned looking down is not a good idea at all. but something special is also a bit the steps. they are not the same height,

so you don't get used to okay. step to fit. no, you have to really be cautious with every step. your tech has to happen. yes. if you want. oh okay. yeah. i have a but janet if i look up there, what i see there doesn't help at all or yes, it does because we are getting closer. 2 and closer, oh, we know that the law we know we don't get on a motorized winch used to haul wagons with tools and materials up the rails alongside the stairs. but there's nothing to haul me up. but even so we are slowly getting there. ah

ha, ha ha. is this eyes is a 4444. i am on top of florida. ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, best this. yeah. to go. okay. oh ah . ready this is of you ah. and this is your a why what a rewards very want east to swim. i good luck. oh huh. and he saying this is a reward awards that is there a oh oh, how is it? oh, oh oh, oh, oh,
