<description><![CDATA[Daren the Peasant Chef is a cosy fantasy audio adventure about Daren, a peasant boy fresh off his small town farm, trying to become the king's chef. Every episode features Daren, the king's new assistant taster, balancing work-related obstacles (like staying organised and appeasing royalty) with the pressures and woes of leaving home on his own. At its heart, it tells the story of growing up and finding your own identity when you are so used to falling back on the closed-minded opinions of those around you.]]></description>

<itunes:subtitle>Daren's attempt to work at an inn</itunes:subtitle>
<description><![CDATA[<h1>Cooking: it's fun, right?</h1>
<p>On the way to the Eastern Principality, Daren and the king's men stop at an inn with a less-than-desirable reputation. When the innkeeper learns of Daren's culinary skills and eagerness for a permanent job, she engages his services in the kitchen for a day to impress a lord passing by. But Daren doesn't exactly know how to work with a staff that isn't the king's men. </p>

<itunes:subtitle>A Hunting Trip Goes Awry</itunes:subtitle>
<description><![CDATA[<h1>Don't know what to do? Fake it till you make it.</h1>
<p>The king's party finally made it to the Eastern Principality, and, unfortunately for Sir Maxwell, Lord Hyperion wants to see his son and his new mentee. During their talk, Daren agrees to go on a hunting trip with Lord Hyperion against Sir Maxwell's wishes in an attempt to ease the relationship between father and son. The only problem is that Daren has no idea how to hunt with a lord. </p>
