Sniffing out truffles 'down under'

Those precious truffles aren't just a product of southern Europe - even in Australia there is a burgeoning industry for finding and marketing the delicacy for the local market. In the latest edition of ATW Travelradio Australia, our 'down under' contributor John Crook  'sniffed' out an interview opportunity with dog trainer Georgie Paterson who specialises in teaching canines to locate the truffles. Also in this episode, Frances Beasley reports on the Tourtoirac Caves, France. The US team led by Arthur von Wiesenberger chats with Michael Cervin who phones in from the Lake Geneva area of Switzerland.
