Um...I've been watching cooking shows since I was wee. I can remember watching The Galloping Gourmet with my Mom many moons ago, so that's where it all began. Where there's good food, there's comfort.
I watch a ton of stuff on FOOD Network. Some of my favourite chefs are Symon, Florence, Flay, Conant (Pasta Nazi), Cat Cora...the list goes on and on. I'm also guilty of watching some of the reality type shows on FOOD, which often have an Amazing Race vibe to them and seem to focus less on technique and more on how fast the chefs drive a car. The Cooking Channel features some great shows as well. Cooking Like an Iron Chef, Luke's Vietnam, Food(ology).
So, what do you watch? Who's your favourite chef? Anyone else wonder why Guy isn't fatter than he is after visiting all those greasy diners? Is Scott Conant too militant about undercooked/overdone pasta? Is there anyone that is geekier about food than Alton Brown? Is Paula Dean serving up more cholesterol problems week after week? Who's cuisine will reign supreme? Will Nom Nom win the Great Food Truck Race? What is the craziest ingredient you've seen in the Chopped Basket?
