Seasons & Episode
In the first in a new series Tom and Henry head for Blackpool, where for the last 16 years, Len and Babs Curtis have been running the Mermaid Café, a greasy spoon just off the prom.
The brothers are in London, at a café close to the Tower of London, making a beefeater burger, a pea soup with smoked eel and some regal gluten-free chestnut biscuits called queenies.
Exmouth in Devon has all the charms of the classic English beach resort: sun, sea, sights and two miles of breathtaking beaches. But Tom and Henry are convinced people would prefer more locally inspired flavours.
At Jean Haslam's Deli Café in Stratford-upon-Avon, the boys try out slow-roasted pulled pork, a beef sandwich and Juliet's fool - a decadent raspberry and chocolate pud.
