About Jamie

New York intro

This episode of Jamie’s American Roadtrip takes Jamie to New York City, only this time he’s trading the upscale restaurants and neighbourhoods he’s used to for an apartment in one of the world’s most ethnically diverse areas: Queens. From his new home Jamie explores some of the food being cooked by New York’s immigrant communities: Egyptian, Peruvian and Chinese.

Jamie uncovers things he’s never imagined like an illegal restaurant run in a family’s living room and an anti-restaurant scene. The people who run these ‘supper clubs’ open their homes to strangers and feed them restaurant-quality meals, without the inflated prices and hurried service. After discovering this new side to the city he’s known for years, Jamie is inspired to hold his own supper club.

Explore the site to find some classic New York recipes inspired by the state and the people, read interviews with some of the people Jamie met and check out the bonus footage and pictures.

New York recipes

New York has just about every type of nationality, food and ethnic mix you can imagine. Many different communities live side by side in Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs, and I wanted to find out a bit more about them, their recipes and what brought them to this amazing city. And, as you’ll see here, I couldn’t visit New York without doing my own versions of those all-American classics.

Jamies America


I wrote this book to get to the heart of great American food, to get past the junk and super-sized portions. From New York to New Orleans, the energy of Los Angeles to the big skies of Wyoming, I found what I was looking for: some of the most diverse and delicious recipes I've ever come across!
