Timeshift

Migrants from Italy, China and the Indian sub-continent brought new ways of dining and helped the British to be more adventurous about eating out.

Season 01, Episode 01 – “How Eating Out Went Exoic”
Timeshift looks at how post-war Britain went from a place where eating out was more of a chore than a pleasure to a nation of food adventurers, now spending up to a third of our food budget on restaurant meals. It’s the story of the British palate being slowly introduced to a range of what would then have been ‘exotic’ cuisines by successive generations of migrants opening eateries – first Italians, then Chinese and Indians. By encouraging us to try something new – be it spaghetti, stir fry or samosa – they spiced up not just our food but our high streets and our lives.
