Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 i will have to check it out. On BBC? i just rented a fun movie about restaurant life called 'In The Weeds' [i think that was the name]. Had Molly Ringwald in it and a few other actors that i didn't know well. Must have been a boxoffice sleeper, but i prefer to rent those. The chef in this movie was very intimidating; much like a chef i used to work with in a restaurant in NY. Made me laugh. Another good cooking theme movie i love is called 'The Big Night'. Italian cooking at its finest. Starred Tony Shalub [sp], the guy from the TV series MONK. Check it out if you like cooking films. Anybody else know of some funny or interesting cooking movies or shows? ~ pt ~ A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher (1803-1882) ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~> , Jenni Billings <jenni@b...> wrote: > HEY >> have any of you ever watched the British Comedy Chef!??? it is > Lenny Henry at his most hilarious.. or at least hubby and I enjoy it... > > very quirky, arrogant, and hilarious. > > =) > jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 " Anybody else know of some funny or interesting cooking movies or shows? " There is a really annoying reality TV chef show that was going on last season. I can't remember the name. I don't watch the cooking channel very often anymore. I know that I didn't really like Emeril that much but he grew on me. Bobby Flay doesn't always sound like he knows what he is doing but he's got some good shows. Anyone watch the Iron Chef? The American version, I believe, is hosted by Alton Brown (or at least was at some point). I think my favorite chefs and shows to watch on the tele are the cooking contests and the festivals. I like watching the techniques of the regular people as they go from booth to booth while some share their secrets. The festivals are always neat too. From garlic festivals to strawberry festivals, you get to see such items as garlic ice cream and strawberry/chile preserves. S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
