Viewing tip: High Cuisine
Cooking with drugs doesn’t necessarily have to result in just space cake and cannabis burgers. The documentary High Cuisine proves that. In it, a chef from New York (Noah Tucker) and a chef from London (Tony Joseph) take you into the world of high cuisine: high-end dishes that get you high.
The chefs visit local top chefs in the Netherlands for inspiration, and then cook a unique high cuisine dinner, joined by the local chef and experts. Think of Guillaume de Beer and Freek van Noortwijk from Maris Piper in Amsterdam, and Andy Brauers from Kasteel TerWorm in Limburg. The two chefs travel through Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Limburg and Zeeland in four episodes.

Tucker and Joseph have lived in the Netherlands for more than ten years and have worked in various Michelin-starred kitchens. Now they have switched to cooking with cannabis, psychedelics and mind-altering herbs, and want to take this to a higher level: high cuisine.
By using microdosing (a small amount of the drugs) in dishes, they aim to enhance the dish. The dishes will include everything that is legal in the Netherlands, such as cannabis, Kanna (a plant from South Africa), Syrian rue and psychedelic truffles.
The documentary will be available on Videoland from 5 April.
