Bourdain enlists the help of chef José Andrés, his friend and a native of Asturias, to guide him the through the food and culture of this mountainous region on Spain’s northern coast. Bourdain and Andrés drink cider and travel up the Picos de Europa mountain range to the remote town of Bulnes. They also search for the highly coveted first salmon of the season. As Andrés shows Bourdain around, he reflects on the joyful experience of returning home.
