Sol Food

A cook and a filmmaker doing whatever it takes to bring you the most adventurous cookbook ever. Sol Food Cinema was born out of an adventure.

We used filmmaking, cooking and dinner parties to roam across the world for 28 months. Our style of travel ensured that we would never be tourists. That we would always have to engage with the people around us and stay down to earth. This is how learned to work under any condition and find beauty in it the most unexpected places. After years of practice we thought it would be a waste to keep our s

kills and experience for ourselves. Now it's time to share it, working with partners who are making a difference.

Sitting is the last stage in the writing process … living comes first.

“Two brothers, not in blood but in bond.”

It is usually a shared cause, dream or delusion that brings men together. It doesn’t always turn out well. But along the way it can often make brothers out of them.

Phileo- brotherly love. As someone from Philadelphia can tell you it’s not pretty, or kind as the Greeks would define it, but it is very stubborn and hard to break.

It was this mysterious force that kept us on the road for 1000 days together. That kept us from parting ways or killing each other. That kept us in good spirits when travelling through hell.

It is what made our cookbook possible. Literally bound together by brotherly love.

And what a story it has to tell.

Cameron, connecting with his Scottish ancestors over a mutual love of stones. Skipping them, lifting them, climbing them. You can really tell he feels at home here.

“Wait, this was ME?” It can be pretty mind blowing to look back on your life, realize what it took to reach this moment and remember who you have to thank for it all - yourself.

Yes. It’s true you can never do it alone. But you have to take that first step. Each day. Many times. Towards the unknown.

This book is a collection of those steps and how they transformed a pretty massive unknown into an incredible feast of stories. From Italy to Singapore by land - a route we discovered along the way. And the way back, via India, a path we created for ourselves.

1000 days of living life with reckless abandon and total dedication to it. 1000 days of cooking up dreams and nourishing our souls with stories. 1000 days of the greatest adventure to ever make a cookbook.

You should read it. You can find a preview and much more on our website. See link in Bio.

And just to mention this, one of the best parts of traveling to distant lands is the lack of cellphone service. So the beauty of it all is not being distracted by your phone. Hope this is the last post you read today, because there is a beautiful world out there, no matter where you are.

It feels surreal to hold this at last.

For so many years it was an unthinkable thing, first - to pull off the adventure of a lifetime, and then to bring it all together between two covers. Each took about 1000 days in their own right. Not a small amount of work.

Over 42,000 kilometers by land. Over 1000 hours of film. Countless meals prepared. Countless steps taken and words written. At last it boils down to this - one incredible cookbook.

So with the lions share of the effort behind us we are very excited to do this last leg of the journey and find a publisher who wants to see where we can go.

Personally we’re excited for the reunion tour.

Let’s go!

Sometimes it is great to feel small!
The wonders of the world just get so much bigger.

So grateful to have finally gotten a taste of Scotland with .please.eat

The adventure never ends with this guy.

If you want to join us on the trip of a lifetime, help us get our cookbook published. We promise it will lead you places you could never imagine.

This recipe is very simple. Part 1) Enjoy a strong drink, or a few. 2) Make some crazy plans. 3) Try to remember what you said and then actually do it.

I’m not sure if I can recommend this recipe in good confidence, but it was highly effective. Youthful vigour and goat-like stubbornness were surely important elements, as were some very hard working livers. So make sure to factor that in before you get carried away as we did.

You never know what life is going to throw at you, and how your reactions to it will forever change the future.

Most times we don’t pay much attention to it. We let these decisions pass by unnoticed as we go about our day and the seemingly monotonous stream of moments that comprise them. This is why travel is so helpful, because all of a sudden you are physically thrust into the unknown. Your mind kicks back on. Your eyes open again. You begin to notice things, like the face of the cashier at the grocery store, the way the wind moves through the trees or the women who just emerged from the sea and started swimming towards you. At least if you’re .please.eat

Here’s a little taste of the cooks writing. The first five chapters can be found on our website. Check it out and if you know of anyone in publishing, we would love to meet them.

Have you ever flown across the ocean to go on an adventure with someone, only to discover you might actually have no clue who they are? Well, it’s a funny feeling.

It turns out that .please.eat was far more complex and intriguing than I had originally given him credit for. I would come to learn that is true for just about everyone, but this guy was definitely a unique case:

At the time: sensitive ego-maniac, who possessed the supernatural cooking ability of a grandmother, matched only by his Napoleonic hunger for success.

If it were not for my own bizarre traits I probably would have turned back immediately.

(One thing was for certain - we both loved a good whisky, but whether that kept us afloat or on the verge of sinking is still up for debate.)

It’s hard to believe this dysfunctional relationship, or highly functional partnership mired in some form of self destruction or another, managed to survive over 1000 days on the road.

I don’t know exactly what it was that bound us together, even when the chips were down and the whisky was gone, but all these years later he continues to surprise me, and I cant imagine a better brother to have found.

Crazy. But true.

So we’ve proved that we can travel and take awesome pictures. But can we actually write?

One would think that is crucial to being a published author. Well, let’s find out.

The first three chapters of our book are up for preview on our website.

It’s finally here.

The Vagabond Cookbook!

We returned to Paris 10 years later to celebrate where this all began.
In front of Shakespeare and Co. two young souls collided. Having each read many stories, they decided instead to make one of their own.

What happened next was a life-changing adventure, spanning over 1000 days on the road,
35 countries, 42,000 kilometres (by land) 50 recipes and 50 stories of the remarkable people we cooked for.

After all this, sitting under a tree in Paris and reading a good book sounds perfect… but the adventure continues! - Finding a Publisher.

If there is one thing we learned from our travels, and from the books we have read it’s this: “Destiny does not do house calls. You have to go out and find it.”*

So prepare to see much more of us. We’re going to be relentless. Trust us, you’re going to love it. And if you want to stop us, please, publish our book. It’s actually very good. Probably the most adventurous cookbook ever. Or at least so far.

See for yourself, the first few chapters are on our website. (link in bio)

Big thanks to everyone, especially those who keep the art of books alive.

Q. “What’s your writing process like?” A. “A cabaret.” Enjoy a little look at the madness which spawned The Vagabond Cookbook. The main ingredients: a cook, a storyteller and their bizarre chemistry. It’s tough to understand how after 1000 days on the road together we are still at it. And even more so how our dysfunctional relationship has withstood more hurdles than a healthy marriage probably could have taken. And on top of that, how many couples have made a cookbook? (Did I just call us a couple?) F**k it, enjoy the show. #thevagabondcookbook Big shout out to our friends at @sage_berlin_kreuzberg for letting us set up our tuk tuk restaurant on their beach and make whatever the hell we wanted. You guys are legends. 🏴‍☠️❤️
