The Silk Road:
There used to be a time when merchants could travel from China to Italy with nothing but some camels and charisma —no visa applications required. Today, that same journey would involve a mountain of paperwork and border stamps. Adan Sher revisits the fascinating world of the Silk Road and it's influence on global cuisines, cultures, and commerce.
