Random chit-chat
Let me start by updating you on last week’s news. Apparently Gordon has burnt his balls by going commando. It was smeared all over the press, and it was bigger than any other Ramsay story recently. I don’t even know if the story is true or not, but a man burning his genitals must be good press, since about every newspaper has picked up the story.
For the foodtv downloaders amongst you, I recently discovered an excellent foodtv tracker. Unfortunately, it works with a ratio, and registrations are most likely closed. If you can still get in, I recommend you give it a visit. There are alot of brand new UK foodtv shows on there.
What’s new in foodtv ya say? I’ve recently been watching Rick Stein’s Mediterranean Escapes, unfortunately a little less interesting than his French Odyssey, but still very much worth watching. I’ve also been watching BBC’s The Restaurant, where couples battle for a business opportunity with chef Raymond Blanc. Nine couples open up their restaurant, and each week one is eliminated, until only one is left. Speaking about foodtv “game” shows, one of my favorites that I’ve been watching is Top Chef season 3, which has only a few weeks left until the finale. And not to forget Nigella’s new show, Nigella Express. It’s always fun watching Nigella cook, and according to her website, she has also recorded Nigella’s Christmas Kitchen, to air in December.
All the above shows can be downloaded from foresaid tracker, except for Top Chef, which you can find here. Also keep an eye out for Kitchen Nightmares, which starts in exactly one week!
