Where in the world is. . . Chef Jim Coleman?! Today the travel bug bites, so grab your boarding pass. Naomi Duguid takes us on a tour of the Great Subcontinent in her book, "Mangoes and Curry Leaves: Culinary Travels." Taste a unique meat treat from Asia and Celebrate St. David's Day in Wales. Tina Nordstrom, PBS host of "New Scandinavian Cooking," tells us what it's like to cook in an ice hotel and dive for oysters. We'll also stop by Tuscany and when we arrive home, we'll talk about the serious topic of raising kids with good nutritional habits. But we won't get too serious- we'll talk about retro cereal boxes, too!

We'll take a page from Maureen Petrosky's wine club and get to know Syrah--or Shiraz; no matter how you say it, you're sure to like this grape. Learn how to master home-made pasta and discover a community baking service project. Michael Jackson, the beerhunter, will down a pint with us, but first we'll talk about the history of the Irish diaspora.

When you think of Korean food, you probably think, "kimchee." But this is a cuisine with many different dishes and ingredients. During this hour we'll explore the many facets of Korean cooking. Chef Jim Coleman also discovers an Irish-American pub that showcases both traditional Irish foods and the modern dishes that are a result of the new prosperity on the Emerald Isle. Mr. Cutlets returns to tell us about an unusual mutton dish, and our nutritionist gives us some skin-care advice for the summer months. Then we'll take the dining room into the bedroom and get a report on a surprising new aphrodisiac!
