Cooking with pro chefs - gathering ingredients, foraging wild food and cooking up a feast
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 жов 2022
- I met up with the chefs and cooks that work at Huisje James. We foraged wild food from the woods, met up with a butcher and gathered vegetables and herbs from the garden. I watched them cook up some INCREDIBLE food and tasted the magic they created!

It just shows you that there are still many good people in this world. Sometimes you lose hope in humanity, then you see a video like this and realise that there are still kind, inviting and caring people ready to help a stranger and not expect anything back. Every person featured on this roadtrip deserves a round of applause.
Really beautiful ! I believe in people ❤we have to ! You are so lucky have this beautiful experience, have a good trip back to see your family 🌹❤️

The people who invited you into their lives is testimony to the simple joy and pleasure your videos give to all who watch them. Your natural curiosity and warmth shine through every shot and leave viewers wanting more. Well done Alex.
Thank you ❤️
Probably your best vlog yet, loved it, the guys at the restaurant really added to it. Well done Alex
Thanks Glen! :)
Hey Alex, I'm not commenting very often, but you deserve it! I was born in Lithuania live in Ireland for about 20 yeas. I working as a chef, love fishing, love to pick mushrooms in forest, love photography and travel, and i can find all in your channel! Thank you! Best regards Marius.
Alex this series has really and truly been astonishing to watch, and thank you for taking us on it with you! I feel privileged to have stumbled onto yours and your brothers channel many a years ago and it’s been wonderful to watch you pursue this unreal adventure. Here’s to many more 🍻
Thanks Martin!
It’s so good to see a young man like you Alex on his travels. Most of us have not had the chance for one reason or the other to do this.
You have a talent you should keep on when ever you can travelling maybe one day you could become a presenter or something as you have a laid back interesting attitude. Well done!👍🇬🇧
Agreed I think in the future one of the tv channels will snap him up for a country foraging and cooking program.
Oh wow Alex, how lucky are you to get to enjoy their enthusiasm and taste some exquisite food. It must have been an awesome experience. This journey has been amazing.
It's not Just Alex, It's Chef Alex!. This channel has been a roller coaster to watch, you never know what you are in for but it's a guaranteed amazement. Video quality, the story telling, the adventure, lots of memories being created. So many things being put together.. I see a catch and cook/adventure already in the future. Thanks for bringing us along with you in your journey/adventures to come.
Thanks for watching the journey!
They look like such good people with so much passion for cooking. They were enjoying every bit of it.
This vid was exceptional Alex. You are so lucky to have shared a kitchen with those chefs and share their food. Best one ever.
Just Alex? Just brilliant! I'm so enjoyed being on this journey with you. What an incredible way to cap things off, the generosity to invite you on that experience. So unique and exciting! Totally understand in regards to describing truly great food. It's somewhat transcendental!
I think its safe to say i and many other people wish we could take off & travel the way you have (maybe 1 day) You have dared to do it & it paid off, meeting some of the nicest, warmest & welcoming people along the way. Good luck Alex & keep travelling, your road trip has been a pleasure to watch & I'm sure we will see more.
Take care.

Proud to be Dutch! Nice adventure Alex. Enjoy pure food en super cooking skills.
Alex you just get better and better with your creativity and content and always one of my first choices to watch!
Thanks!
Apart from the superb content, the lovely people/place you find yourself in etc....can I just commend you again on amazing camera work/editing and general putting together a film like this Alex. You are supremely talented, I was transfixed throughout. Better than anything on the telly.
Fair play to you pal ...you have just shown how human beings are so kind and adventures throughout different countries and how hard it is to be in England keep upp the adventures Alex 👍👍👍🤜🤛
I'm Dutch myself and I loved how the video showed some of the delicious food
Yet again you put out another phenomenal video! Give it two years you'll have 1 million subscribers
Alex I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed this series. I have been following this channel since about 1k subscribers and despite being upset about you leaving carl and alex I'm so happy to see how much your channel has grown. Your trip has inspired my friend and I to go on our own trip inter railing around Europe with the goal to make it to Istanbul. Thankyou so much and keep up the good work :)
That so awesome. Best of luck with your inter railing. I’m sure it’ll be an amazing experience! 😊
That just looked epic - and what an amazing group of likeminded people - just added their restaurant to my bucket list!
Yeah they were a great bunch of people!
See you soon 👌🏻
What an experience, not at all jealous. Thanks for the upload 👌
That food looks amazing!!
What an amazing adventure, Alex! Thanks for taking me along. Peace
i love how you are standing there getting little tasters of things being made!! you have had such an amazing trip full of amazing adventures and you got to meet amazing people!! just glad you share it all with us!!
This has genuinely inspired me to make some sort of dinner tonight that requires more than the normal effort I put in, thank you! Brilliant production. Kind group of people
Alex, all of Europe is learning to love you. And those of us offshore as well. Keep it up, keep bringing us all these fascinating people. We owe you a debt for this chef special, wow.
Love your channel. Your personality is a breath of fresh air on UA-cam
Great job Alex, Ive really enjoyed dipping in and out of your travels. It makes me happy that youve met so many kind, generous, welcoming and hospitable people on your journey araound Europe. It also makes me a little sad that so many folks in the UK wanted us to break from that union and become a more backward looking nation. Good for you for showing that there are still open minded, outward looking people here.
Can tell you enjoyed this thoroughly , as well as your hosts, everyone having fun and enjoying is so good to see !! You're living your best life Alex, congratulations mate 🎊🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉
Words cannot describe what a fantastic journey you made us part of, Alex! Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
I think Alex was just in the presence of greatness...
Those chefs are one of the BEST ones that I ever witnessed.
It's very rare for someone to witness peopel.with such passion for food.
They catch, forage, and grow their own ingredients then turn them into an AMAZING work of art.
I want to go to their restaurant and experience their food before I leave this earth...
Thank you for this video Alex... Thank you
Well done Alex, brilliant road-trip! You are a true natural with the camera, who people warm to and feel at ease with ... that's a gift.
Thank you 😊😊😊
Just awesome to see how happy you are doing what your obviously loving. Keep up the amazing content.
Thanks for an icredible journey. What an adventure a road trip from the back of a van. Respect! Groeten uit Nederland!
Another amazing video Alex! Hope you enjoy all the adventures. The amount of people that invite you shows how happy you make some of us with this great content.
there is so much to explore in this big world! i get more motivated to get out my town here in florida just to go exploring and meet new people. keep the amazing videos coming
As a chef that video was my fav! What a place, what a bunch of people! Well done
Thank you for taking us along your incredible journey.
That sums up for me what I already know - the Dutch are some of the best people I’ve ever met too, greatest respect to them. What a great show of hospitality and friendship, brilliant that you could capture it all on film and share with us all. Cheers Alex and everyone 😎😁👍🏼
Thanks a million Alex. This was incredible. Watching the cooks create that meal made my mouth water. You've had an amazing trip and I can't wait to see more. Well done!!
This was an awesome trip to watch over the last few months. Hopefully we will see another one soon

Thank you Alex for sharing your adventures with us! SO fun to watch you have fun foraging the mushrooms and the friendships you built with new friends! Cheers.
More evocative and inspiring journeying!
Still enjoy the old videos of you and Carl and so happy for both of your successes!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'm so glad you took this little trip and decided to share it with us!
What a finale Alex! I started watching this one this morning whilst by the sea in our caravan holiday home and noticed yesterday all of the mushrooms on the field. I stopped the video and identified 3 types!!! None edible sadly but now I have a wee bug to start foraging! Just finished the last 10-15 mins on the deck overlooking the sea with a nice cold beer. It really has been quite the adventure. Thank you for sharing this with us Alex, may there be many more 🍻
Wow, that was the best video yet!!! That food looked amazing and you could just tell how much you were enjoying it by how much your face was beaming!!!
Honestly Alex, thanks for sharing your adventures.... It looks like you're european adventure has given you so many cool new experiences and the chance to meet some great personalities and talented people!
What ever u decide to do next... We'll all be here to find out mate! Peace brother!
What an amazing journey thanks for taking us along Alex.. wish I had the time and money to try something like this! Can’t wait for the next adventure!🙌🏼🙌🏼
Well Alex this was another incredible video! I couldn't think of a better way to break in the camper you built. And what an amazing way to end your trip. Have a safe trip back home and we all look forward to your next adventure. Cheers
wouuu Alex, I am proud to be Dutch, because of your last adventure here in the Netherlands, those people were just amazing, to invite you for this.
I could follow the dutch words and combined with your words, it was very great to watch this video., which means the end of your journey. As the highlight for me.
for the future, I hope for some videos with your brother, and later some new trips across the world
Great work, Alex!
