Michael Portillo continues his 1,000-mile journey from Minnesota to the home of the blues in Memphis, Tennessee. At the ornate Palmer House Hotel, he recreates the original chocolate brownie, invented by Bertha Palmer in 1893. And beside the Kankakee River, Michael is invited to visit the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed house that changed the face of US architecture.
