In Taste the Nation, Padma Lakshmi journeys across America, exploring the rich and diverse food culture of various immigrant groups over 10 half hour episodes.

The episode I cut (Zen and the Art of Poke) takes a look at the Japanese-American community in Honolulu, HI.

In lieu of a clip from the show, I’ve linked to a trailer on this page. If you’re a Hulu subscriber, click here to go to the episode.
