I like...

Rachel Ray's 30-minute Meals
Emirrel Live
Bobby Flay
Barefoot Contessa

...and I know I said I hate reality shows in another thread, but I do watch Hell's Kitchen occasionally. Chef Ramsey is just too funny.


It's not a cooking show, but I've been watching Man Vs. Food on the Travel Channel lately.

And I love Hell's Kitchen. My brother just got the WII game of Hell's Kitchen because he's a huge fan. He says the game is extremely hard!

Paula Deen, Bobby Flay, and Good Eats (Alton Brown). I also love watching Rachael Ray, Emeril, and the original Iron Chef (the Japanese version)

OMG you guys will probably hate me for this but I saw Paula Dean on Jay Leno the other night (not sure if it was a rerun or not). I love Paula Dean but this got me thinking a little.

As a cook I was a little set back by some of her behaviors, she was making stuffed shells and every so often as she was filling the shells she would like her fingers and then without washing her hands continue to fill the shells.

The part that bothered me is that she was on National TV licking her finger and making food. Just think what she was doing when the cameras weren't on.

It's all about the original Iron Chef.

That intro...oh the biting of the pepper!! Classic.

The commentary was an easy target for jokes too.

Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations


Not really a cooking show but he is a chef and there is cooking on the show.

Sure it's a Cooking Show and by far the MOST Entertaining cooking show.

He's off the wall and visits different places each show. His focus is on Cooking and what makes each country unique (what they do to prepare, ingredients indigenous to that county, etc...) and for the advanced cook it's great for ideas (maybe twisting a recipe to make it more specific to a country).

It's on the Travel Channel
(Highly Recommended)

Absolutely! The pepper part gets me every time..lol...The commentary...It always cracked me up too. I miss it! Shame on Food Network for not showing it anymore! At least I still get to see Morimoto on Iron Chef America..He was always my favorite anyway (well him and Sakai)

Love Anthony Bourdain but don't like the other guy on the Travel Channel (can't remember his name). Also love Ace of Cakes! I so desperately want to order a cake from them but their minimum is $1000

lol oh yeah. Quality.

You should check to see if you have a channel called FLN(fine living network). They show reruns of the original Iron Chef everyday. Pretty awesome

Anything and Everything Giada !...

Do you mean the Bizarre Foods guy? Every once in a while I find a good segment from him. I enjoyed his Halloween special.

I agree about Ace of Cakes soooo cool and sooooo expensive you also have to order way way in advance its ridiculous.

I like her spice rack.

Yeah, him, Andrew Zimmerman (I just looked it up). It's ok but I like Bourdain's show better. Ace of Cakes, 4 to 6 months, minimum, in advance. He's right over in Baltimore, not far from me, and I can't get a cake

I enjoy lots of cooking shows, but my top 2 favorites are Take Home Chef and Ace of Cakes baby!

Giada...welcome to Mingle...
