Meet Michael Psilakis, one of the three contestants on BBC America's all new original unscripted adventure-cooking-competition series NO KITCHEN REQUIRED. Don't miss the world premiere *** Tuesday Apr 3 at 10/9c *** only on BBC America. Immediately following a new episode of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares at 9/8c.

Watch this video & get the inside scoop on Michael as he steps away from his life as an executive chef and director of a restaurant group. He's owned his own restaurant since he was 23 and will expand his 3 restaurants to a whopping 7 by the end of 2012... But can he handle cooking outside the restaurant kitchen in the most exotic and remote places on Earth?

NO KITCHEN REQUIRED, from the creators of Chopped, follows three chefs as they work with the locals to hunt, fish and forage for ingredients to create a locally-inspired meal that will be judged by the community.

The three fearless chefs are:
* Award-winning New York restaurateur Michael Psilakis;
* First-ever Chopped Grand Champion Madison Cowan, who has roots in London, Detroit and Jamaica
and
* New Zealand chef Kayne Raymond.

The trio leave the comforts of their kitchens and are dropped into ten locations around the world including Belize, Dominica, New Zealand, Fiji, Chiang Mai, Thailand, Phuket, Thailand, Hawaii, New Mexico, Louisiana and Florida.

The series is hosted by British presenter Dr. Shini Somara (BBC's One Show, BBC World News' The Health Show) - who joins the chefs on the adventure.
