With summer in full swing, we're enjoying things all over the world this week. In 2012, chef Andrew Zimmern said Filipino food was the next big thing in 2012 and he was right! Continuing Grilling Month, we rounded up tips for your camping trip and nontraditional cookout from chefs like Jet Tila and Aarón Sánchez. We found some great restaurants to check out in Cincinnati and Cartagena, Colombia. We also spoke to Tory Miller about his Spanish-inspired restaurant — definitely make the trip to Madison if you're in the Midwest. All that and more on this week's Hot Topics.
