National Geographic Channel has started broadcasting the gastronomic travel documentary Croatia's Finest, hosted by the Masterchef winner Dhruv Baker.
From the 1st of October the first and only Croatian gastronomic travel documentary in English is being broadcasted on the Asian markets of China, Japan, India, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and even in some parts of Africa.
Within the next three years more than half a billion people from 90 countries will be able to get to know Croatia better, its rich cultural heritage, natural beauties and supreme gastronomic offer which will be the biggest tourist promotion of Croatia and its products in the world so far.
The Croatia's Finest gastronomic documentary includes 20 half-hour episodes which were filmed on some of the most beautiful locations throughout Croatia. On each of all those locations Baker cooked in the open where no one has ever cooked before such as by the Sea organ on the Zadar waterfront. Baker's culinary creations, made of fresh local groceries, were inspired by original Croatian dishes.
‘’We worked hard and we did a great job, but all that wouldn’t be possible without recognizing the importance of the project by the Croatian Ministry of Tourism, the National Tourist Board as well as by the Croatian president Kolinda Grabar Kitarovic’’, said Tadija Kolovrat, the executive producer of the documentary Croatia’s Finest.
Croatia's Finest is also being broadcasted by Holiday & Cruise TV - Sky Channel 356 in Great Britain and it is soon to be shown in Russia as well.
