An earlier thread reminded me of a few cooking shows I've enjoyed.. Perhaps you recall them too or would like to share your own favorites..
Two Fat Ladies Cook
There was a cooking show on Food Network a while ago called "Two Fat Ladies Cook" They featured Jennifer & Clarissa cooking British style foods and they were quite entertaining. A nice part of their show were scenic views of British Isles, as they rode about on their motorbike. It provided a glimpse into the culture and cuisine of GB (perhaps wolly can help us here). They made shows from 1996-98, with Jennifer passing on in 1998; long before I discovered them on Food Network. For those of you familiar with bingo terminology, you will recognize that 'two fat ladies' refers to call number 88 and the cycle Jennifer drove on their show had the registration N88TFL. Several of their vids can be viewed on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/user/okihsoh80
Iron Chef
Another one that was very entertaining was called the "Iron Chef".. I watched them a lot, a few years ago. The professional chef's ability to extemporaneously create awe inspiring dishes, has earned my respect. Evidently their shows ran from 1993-99 with a few more specials through 2002. So we only caught the tail end on Food Network. You can catch a cross section of their vids on youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/archo89. Other interesting chef's I've watched..
