My France with Manu is an Australian television series screened on the Seven Network. The series follows French born chef and My Kitchen Rules judge Manu Feildel returning to his homeland, visiting friends and family, as well as cooking throughout the country.[1]

The series was initially launched as a two part special, however following its success another two episodes were ordered.[2]

The series inspired a spin-off, My Ireland with Colin, featuring another My Kitchen Rules judge Colin Fassnidge, which aired in April 2015.[3]
