Man vs Food star Adam Richman hunting down stolen laptop in London after TV production van 'cleaned out'

Adam Richman said all of his possessions are gone - (ITV)

Man vs Food star Adam Richman has said “all of my possessions are gone” after items were stolen from the “entire crew” of his latest show.

Mr Richman took to X to say that the crew working on Adam Richman Eats Britain found their van “completely cleaned out” while stopping to use the toilet in Barnet on a trip to the capital.

He wrote: “We were driving from Birmingham to London, stopped at a rest, stop in Barnet for exactly 4 1/2 minutes to use the restroom, and came back to our van completely cleaned out.

“All of the filming equipment is gone. Both of my suitcases with all of my possessions are gone.

“Backpack with my laptop and all of my medications are gone.”

The presenter added that he is able to track his items and can see where they have been taken but he was still waiting for the police to arrive at the scene.

He continued: “The rest stop won’t release the security footage until the police arrive. It’s been almost an hour. 

“I’m going to share a few of the locations where I can see my possessions. Reward for anything found.”

The TV star, who rose to fame on Man vs Food - where he took on some of the largest and greasiest dishes across America, later revealed that he had lost his “two most valuable possessions I have with me, the last birthday card I ever got from my father and a book that my mother gave me”.

The foodie’s show Adam Richman eats Britain has been described as a love letter to British cuisine.

Richman has travelled across the country trying dishes including Yorkshire Puddings, Whitstable oysters, Eton Mess and a mac and cheese doughnut
