Kangaroo Island, South Australia

Al stops at McLaren Vale, which looks just like Tuscany and has the vineyards to prove it. Then on to Kangaroo Island, where he meets Dave Clifford, beekeeper to the last known pure strain of Italian Ligurian honeybees. With honey, local sheep’s milk cheese, local olive oil, and the best gin he’s ever tasted, Al takes a picnic to the Remarkable Rocks, a stunning natural monument. Then, for his final dish, he serves up a fresh squid salad with a roasted red capsicum vinaigrette, squid ink croutons, and local lambs chorizo.
