Spain… On the Road Again

My fellow food writer and twitter-er Addie Boyles has penned a great piece about the new PBS food/travel show starring Iron Chef Mario Batali, Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow, Spanish actress Claudia Bassols, and NYT food editor Mark Bittman.

Here a blurb from it:

I’ve been waiting all summer for Friday. No, not because the Austin City Limits Festival gets underway (although that is reason enough to get excited), but because the PBS series “Spain…On the Road Again” starts on KLRU at 10 p.m. (A note: The series moves to 9 p.m. on Fridays starting October 3.)

The show, which of course features Willie Nelson singing the theme song, started as an excuse for buddies Mario Batali and Mark Bittman, cookbook author and food writer for the New York Times, to eat their way through a country so rich in food tradition that Anthony Bourdain must have been a little jealous he didn’t get invited.
