Mai Chau is the last stop for Luke on his journey through the northern regions of Vietnam. Here, he prepares a young jackfruit salad, which he shares with a nearby family in their stilt house. In the searing heat, he cooks fish in bamboo in the spectacular village grounds and later roasts a freshly slaughtered suckling pig for a village feast.
