Hello All,
Iv'e been mulling over a few thoughts about "Market Kitchen" and realise that uktv food has probably spent a few bob on the set with fixtures and fittings,so they will want some mileage out of that... but get Jenni B in to front it and hey! what about someone like Richard Arnold (GMTV) to serve up the tea & coffee in the background with the odd quip ? he seems to know a bit about food
and at least has a personality can anybody come up with suggestions for the producers for when the current team leave(not too long we hope...) Big Grin

Didn't realise there was two threads going on this web site re the "Market Kitchen" however they appear to be running the same comments on the poor quality of the New programme compared to GFL, thought some of you may enjoy the link at the top ?....

Hi to all,[link]
As I started this thread have popped back to read the comments,seems 99%
agree it's not interesting viewing to say the least...
If you are reading this Amada Smith (uktv food person,see above) There are
4 Things that made GFL a fantastic programme>
1. Jenni had PERSONALITY..
2. We were talked to as friends by her and the team...
3.We were treated as if we had some knowhow about food (making a roux in the first part of the programme?)
4.Jenni didn't take herself or the cooking too seriously which made what could have been mundane cooking items still enjoyable...

Get these things right and the viewing figures will stay high not just in the first couple of weeks of the new show, otherwise ?

Just to let everyone know how much I love my indoor lavarock gas grill (incorporated in my new cooker) it almost satisfies my craving to get the charcoal outdoor bbq going everytime the sun comes out...

Prawns & seafood are great as are steaks etc and to the best of my knowledge
"Lacanche" is the only domestic cooker to have this facility,but beware proper
extraction is essential (which can be expensive) to remove the chances of carbon monoxide poisioning,so dont bring your normal gas grill indoors please...

Hi, I have the Gaggia machine which I bought 4 yrs ago, it still works fine..
Heavy to move and doesn't make the cream as stiff as I'd like but a well made piece of kit.... hope this helps.
