Some more food shows...

Lately, while still watching 'Top Chef' and 'Dinner Impossible' pretty regularly -- Note: I am totally of "Hell's Kitchen", which went absolutely down the drain -- I also followed this show on BBCAmerica... It has what "Hell's Kitchen" lacks: People that you actually believe can cook - not weird comic figures in kitchen whites! I also liked that they were quizzed on concept, restaurant economics etc. And while it has some of the typical reality show effect (dramatic breaks, hard critic) it was interesting to watch...

If I am really down and feel absolutely gross, I watch this one and gleefully chuckle when the lard tubbies are set on a health food diet... makes my own spare tire look really good. Is a little bit disgusting though, too! Just enough to scare you into considering the salad and the whole grain bread...
