Anyone watch $40 a day on the food network?

Anthony Bourdain is the shizz!

Anthony Bourdain, A Cook's Tour
Bourdain is one of the coolest people on television.

my complaint about Cook Like A Chef is that the premise seems to be that you, in your home, can, if you want, in fact, cook like a chef.
the reality is that the show should be renamed Get A Professional Kitchen, 4 Sous-chefs and Then Possibly Cook Like A Chef.

I dont have cable, but when I did there was only 1 TV chef that mattered.

His name is Alton Brown, and he is the greatest TV food personality of all time.

read my posts, bitch!

The $40 day one is awesome.

I can't believe how much she eats on such a tight budget.

Food network is one of my favorite channels because no matter what time it is you can always find something interesting to watch.

I love Nigella Bites too.

except when they have those stupid infomercials on!

My ex used to watch (probably still does) 30minute meals.
She thought it was funny when Rachel went overtime.

I see Liz has good taste, and I don't read threads.

grr he bugs me.

aww, I like that guy! He cooks good food and he's chill. Plus his recipes are pretty much on, for the most part.

Good food network shows: Molto Mario, From Martha's Kitchen, Good Eats, any Jamie Oliver show (especially Jamie's Kitchen!), Nigella Bites (hello boobie shots), The Surreal Gourmet, Forever Summer.

Cook Like a Chef is a piece of poo. Worst show ever! 30 Minute Meals is also poo, as is that $40 a day show. That chick needs a smack in the head. Sugar is boring, Canadian Living Cooks = barf, and Sara's Secrets is kind of annoying but not too bad.

I saw the surreal gourmet guy at the dave eggers reading in the summertime, which earns him points for good taste.

she always "mmmmmmmmmmm"s and opens her eyes all wide like shes never seen food before, and she has this obnoxiously coy smile that she seems to use in the place of a possible million different facial expressions.
and she does this 'knowing look' thing, and she plays dumb sometimes, and she talks as though shes pandering to small children.

MURDEROUS RAGE MATERIAL!

Big ups to the "Down With Rachel" Crew!

The sad part is that there's so much potential with that show, and it falls short due to the the shitty host that comes off as completely fake.

Her other show on the Food Network sucks too.

i like the thirsty traveller, hes like a gay canadian version of anthony bourdan non?

the canadian shows are a bit weak though, canadian living cooks feature the most awkward dishes ever,
"im dafna rabinovich, today ill be making a swiss chard and goats milk flan, along with a boisenberry and fennel seek savoury tart!!"

cook like a chef has all that bad jazz-porn in the background.

rob fennie does good dishes but he is such a vancouver tard. my friend whos a chef at Rain heard he got kicked out of SUR SUR's because he complained about the food, chef Sur sur Lee basically came out and said "im cooking dinner for the queen of tailand tomorow, i dont have time for your shit,if you dont like the food get out"
i dont even think there is a queen of tailand but still, fuck rob feenie...

 

[Booty Bits]

haha wopner, you hit the nail on the head!
rob feenie *is* a vancouver tard!

but i can vouch that there is a Queen of Thailand. the Thai adore her more than you can probably imagine. i was there for her birthday this summer and it was crazy.

excellent fucking book!! one of my favourite reads. I plowed through it in a few days. Supposedly they're making a movie version - if done right that would kick ass.

 

[janiecakes]

I just read that it's called 'Seared' and Brad Pitt will be playing the role of Anthony Bourdain. They're also adding in a love interest, which was definitely absent in the book.

Hmmm. Not sure what I think of that.
