Les tribulations culinaires de Phil

My spouse and I stumbled on this show on Netflix and fell in love. Unlike some celebrity travel/food shows, this one is unfailingly fun and informative. The emphasis on positivity and Phil's slightly goofy but warm and absolutely unpretentious approach to the people and food he encounters is so uplifting. Highly recommend and hope there will be a season 2!

I usually don't find myself hooked onto any show I am watching for the first time lately, but I didn't even flinch while watching this. I feel like I am traveling with the presenter and his crew to all these unique, informative, inspiring places with delicious, cultural food. Phil is the best part of the show other than the cultural aspects, he is a lovable, sweet, curious, childlike man that beams so much positivity that I cannot help but smile while watching this. If you are into a more informal approach to food and travel that isn't so serious and instead soaks in the true and naive joy of travel, watch this.

My wife and I are thoroughly charmed and entertained by this show. We binge watched the entire second season on Netflix! Don't let the negative reviews by snooty sophisticates like Greg Morabito (Eater - Jan 1918) put you off. Phil is funny, and exudes a human genuineness and warmth that is wonderful to see in these jaded times. I am planning a trip to Lisbon based largely on that particular episode. Keep 'em coming, Phil!

Such a lovable quirky guy traveling to wonderful places and meeting the locals. The food part is great but not over done. The best part of the show is Phil and his wonderful attitude and love of life. Also the theme song is fantastic!

I can see a few reviews here of people who are so aghast and insulted that someone that is so happy, kind and optimistic should host a food show-I mean aren't we all supposed to be happy when we taste something new and exciting?

I love this show!
