John gets stuck in to the city's many culinary delights and seeks inspiration for a dish of his own.

He samples local liver and tries his hand at some of Alexandria's sweets. Cooking on the beach overlooking the Mediterranean john cooks his own take on an Alexandria fish dish, bream wrapped in crispy pastry and served with shellfish and cherry tomatoes.
