    Corus Entertainment and Force Four Entertainment are pleased to announce that principal photography is underway on Chuck & Danny’s Road Trip, a cinematic culinary series for Food Network Canada starring chefs Chuck Hughes (Chuck’s Day Off) and Danny Smiles (Top Chef Canada). The six-part series sees chefs and best buddies Chuck and Danny hit the road in an RV and feast their way across some of the nation’s most spectacular regions, sourcing the freshest ingredients and creating memorable meals with celebrated local chefs and food experts from Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, to Prince Edward Island. The original new series is set to premiere on Food Network Canada in Spring 2024.

    For years, the Montreal-based duo have been creating unforgettable feasts for guests and friends of Hughes’ critically acclaimed restaurants, Garde Manger and Le Bremner, and now in this epic culinary “bro-trip”, they’re seeking out Canada’s brightest chefs and most dedicated food artisans to help them create six feasts in six different campgrounds across Canada, including three national parks.

    “We are thrilled to begin shooting with the immensely talented and charismatic Chuck Hughes and Danny Smiles as they head out from their hometown of Montreal to experience the country in a whole new way,” says John Ritchie, Executive Producer, Force Four Entertainment.  “We know that Food Network Canada viewers are going to love seeing their camaraderie as they get hands on, sourcing the freshest ingredients and cooking up incredible campsite feasts at each stop along the way.”

    Chuck & Danny’s Road Trip is produced by Force Four Entertainment, in association with Corus Entertainment’s Food Network Canada.
