To Paris With Parsnips

In a country known for its chauvinism about their food, is it the height of madness for two British amateur cooks to take over a Paris restaurant and introduce fussy Parisian customers to the delights of British food?

Is it possible to sell our British culinary treasures to the French?

Presenter Jane Garvey finds out.

Featuring Andrew Crooks, David Lowe and Agnes Poirier.
