Australia, with its remarkable biodiversity and wide range of cultures served as the perfect location for the show’s first season, in which the Wild Food crew search for interesting places, indulge in indigenous delicacies, interact with locals and partake in the most extreme or sophisticated of activities.

Our Energetic, cheeky and glamorous host guides audiences to some of the most remarkable places; Sometimes with a bit of hesitancy.

He offers up adventures that are rarely seen on television such as Hunting Magpie geese with traditional owners, spearing fish in the shark infested waters of the Eyre Peninsula; Eating wild deer heart cooked over the coals; He drinks wine in some of Australia’s best wineries, goes electrofishing for Carp and reveals his personal inspiration for his recipes as he walks the mangroves looking for mud crabs, the lovable abalone diver Grant Shoreland takes Khanh abalone hunting off the coast of Mallacoota.

While Khanh Ongs Wild Food is first and foremost a factual series, the likeable personality of the host makes it playful, quirky and more accessible, creating informative and entertaining television that appeals to a wide market.
