Watch The Delicacy

The Delicacy takes you from the coastal waters of California to the plates of high-end restaurants as it follows one of the most sought-after foods in the world gathered by the most dangerous profession.⁠

The Delicacy is the story of a rare and exotic food, the sea urchin, and how it’s harvested, how it’s eaten, and the role it plays in nature and the lives of those who bring it to the table. With commentary from some of the most influential and prolific voices in the culinary world including Andrew Zimmern and Ray Isle, the film follows the journey of this food from the ruins of Pompeii to the present-day coasts of California where sea urchin is a prized delicacy not only for humans but also for sea otters. ⁠
