Eva Longoria embarks on a culinary adventure across France in a new BBC Two series, beginning in Paris where she samples an Asian twist on the classic croque madame and meets renowned chef Alain Ducasse. The actor's enthusiasm is palpable, even if the programme sometimes prioritises style over substance.
Parisian Delights and Butter Secrets
Longoria's tour kicks off in the French capital, where she discovers the secret to truly decadent cooking: a generous helping of butter. Her relish for the experience carries the show, making it a lively watch despite its occasional lack of depth.
