Gordon is in Thailand, home of the UK’s fastest growing favourite food. Before he’s made it out of Bangkok Thailand’s most celebrated TV chefs signs Gordon up to a battle of the chefs on his show at the end of the week. Thailand proves to be a real eye opener; Gordon enters a temple to search for inner calm when he gets a lesson in mediation, a night out to see Thai Boxing takes a peculiar twist when lady boys steal the limelight and Gordon finishes his week trying to out-cook celebrity chef McDang on national television.
