OT: The Food & Drinks Thread Part Trois

[Tighthead]

Agreed, I like him. I also like Sam the cooking guy and the french cooking guy, these guys aren't pros but they know their stuff and they could 100% work in a kitchen if they wanted (Well, most people could work in a kitchen, but like being good at it is something else.)

Theres some others though that are absolutely cringe.

There are a handful of those on the food network.

By the French guy do you mean Alex? If so, I like him too. I also like Sorted.

I went to Sam The Cooking Guy's restaurant when I was in San Diego. It was really good.

I didnt even know Sam was a restaurant owner. Makes sense since he's always using liters to store crap in. Kitchen addictions.

I used to watch the Galloping Gourmet.

I used to watch the Frugal Gourmet (on TV) until several men accused him of sexual abuse when he was a minister and chef (Chaplain's Pantry) and filed lawsuits. He never went to prison but he settled out of court, that ended his TV career. I watch this woman on youtube:



She's Ukrainian I believe but probably married to a Spaniard since the show is in Spanish.

I'd highly recommend Not Another Cooking Show. Modest presentation and food always comes out looking spot on.

That’s a big list. What’s your favorite?

Gotta go with Toxicite. I was initially apprehensive towards coconut in any kind of drink, but it was genuinely delicious.

Yeah, Ive seen him before. Over the top presentation isnt my jam but hes fine-ish. Still a home cook and for my time, id rather watch someone with actual knowledge

There are a handful of those on the food network.

I got into it on Twitter with Robert Irvin when I made a few posts about the Food Network being 20% cooking and 80% game show. 6 year old are baking, there's several shows with contestants shopping, and there's hardly anyone left actually cooking who's not a poseur or an idiot.

Irvin said I was rude. I said something to the effect that his show about stepping into failing restaurants and turning them into Michelin quality was fraudulent.

I used to watch it years and years ago. Batali has a good show, Alton Brown, so did some Canadians. I liked the Chef at Large guy. I learned a fair bit.

I just sort of fell out of watching it but I know there are lots of goofy shows now.

Chef Michael Smith is a solid chef. Chef at Large was great.

 

[Paul Dipietro]

There you go.

That's my point. Given that it's a lot more expensive I was hoping that other people with a gluten intolerance had any tips on where they buy their flour

 

[Treb]

I like Guga (Guga's food/Sous Vide Everything).

That may be because I like beef.

I also like watching 2 sushi chef sometimes (can't remember the name of the first one and the 2nd one is something like outdoor sushi).

I also watch Mikey Chen's Strictly Dumpling channel, but that's not a cooking channel, just a food channel.

Worth it food is also nice when they put up a video.

 

[peate]

Un Chef à La Cabane is pretty good for outlandish menus using local foodstuffs and lots of maple syrup. But then Gabrielle the pastry chef left and I lost interest.

In can ask my buddy at work next Tuesday for you. Sorry if I came off as an ass lol

It's ridiculous what they do with some shows, so much is not pertinent to the end result.

Was it not reported the Irvin embellished a lot of his credentials?

I used to watch the Galloping Gourmet.

Was he an Aussie? kind of frantic? funny guy!.

IS a good show! It's back with a new season as of a few months ago.

My 2 favorite episodes were the pickling evil twin and the smoker he made out of giant flower pots out side of a motel.

Yeah, Graham Kerr, always had a glass of wine going. Scottish guy.

I used to watch Batali who is a tremendously talented chef (that idiot destroyed his own career and probably did no good for his restaurant conglomerate), Ming Tsai who is in the same category of skill, and the original Japanese Iron Chef. Now those fellows could cook circles around most western chefs!

I hadn't heard that but I'm not at all surprised. I never liked the man's arrogance.

Made a huge batch of Hunan peanut dumpling. Works great from frozen afterwards.
