This fall, pop in for some pop-up feasts in unique settings--joining some of the country's most innovative chefs and food artisans for a new culinary adventure when Moveable Feast with Fine Cooking returns to kick-off Season Four. The Emmy® nominated food and travel series, hosted by award-winning Australian chef and author Pete Evans, travels to an array of incredible food destinations in 13 all-new episodes designed to inspire home cooks everywhere. Produced by WGBH and Fine Cooking magazine, the series premieres on public television stations beginning Saturday, September 3rd (check local listings).

Each episode of Moveable Feast with Fine Cooking follows Evans and imaginative guest chefs as they source the finest ingredients. They then join forces to prepare a spontaneous multi-course menu together for local pop-up events in visually stunning, often surprising surroundings.

The new season brings viewers memorable food experiences from both coasts-as Evans cooks each week with chefs from Baltimore, MD, Charleston, SC, Durham, NC, Topping, VA, and Washington, DC on the eastern seaboard, and San Diego, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, CA on the West Coast, and up through Montana in the Pacific Northwest.

Viewers have the opportunity to learn about each chef, their distinctive culinary styles and gastronomic muses, and to experience their individual approach to innovating new recipes as well as cooking classic traditional dishes from different regions around the country. Evans also explores the locally-sourced food with intriguing artisan field trips, such as shrimping in the Carolinas, harvesting oysters from the Chesapeake Bay, collecting raw honey from a mountain hive, trout fly-fishing under the big sky, and foraging for seaweed in San Francisco..
