Escapade Media Acquires Rights to Food Diary

Escapade Media has secured the global distribution rights to Food Diary, a four-part factual series by Robert Roworth that will be launched at MIPCOM.

The travelogue sees personalities Colin Fassnidge and James White venture to international locations such as Mongolia, Cambodia and Okinawa, exploring local cuisines. “This cinematic series embraces elements from Gordon Ramsay’s Uncharted to the thrills of Indiana Jones,” said Natalie Lawley of Escapade Media.

“It’s about adventure, about human connection and becoming part of each place you step into,” Lawley continued. “Colin and James don’t just observe, they immerse, and Robert turns those moments into unforgettable cinema. We are thrilled to be working with them and building Food Diary into many seasons to come.”

“In creating Food Diary, I started with the fundamental principle that there is more in this world that unites us than divides us; we live similar lives but with nuance, and it is that nuance that makes us interesting to one another,” said Roworth.

“I’ve been cooking nearly 40 of my 50 years, yet I know there’s so much more to learn–new ingredients, new stories, new tables to sit at,” said Fassnidge. “Cooking has always been a way to connect, to cut through politics and differences. Around the table, everyone has a voice. This journey strips away the scripts and rules, leaving me to react to life as it comes–new cultures, new foods and my honest take on it. Food Diary is a show that is raw, real, sometimes confronting but always full of heart.”
