Has anybody seen the programe Iron Chef, its comes on challenge TV, I think they should bring it to UKTV food, Now the Iron Chefs have got to be the best chefs in the world bar none.

I have seen it, but didn't like it much. I did however, only watch a little bit of it. I will give it another go in case I am missing something. Thanks DeLeeder. Smile

Watched a few episodes a while back and even though the cooking is impressive I found it a bit too 'showey' and over the top.

I'll have to disagree with most here...DeLeeder...I LOVE the Iron Chef! It's on the US food network every day and although i wouldn't eat or try to make 2/3 of the things they do, i just LOVE it. kind of a different take on ready steady cook! i had seen it on challenge and we talked about it a few months ago on uktvfood, but i thought it had gone off the air. when is it on? i'd LOVE to see it on UKTV food. even for those who don't particularly like it, it would be nice to put in place of SOME of the repeats that are on throughout the day, wouldn't it? there is an iron chef website which tells you all about the chefs, programme, etc. Big Grin

yeah, the show has got some kind of crazy style to it- well funny with the dubbing voice overs aswell, i think Iron Chef French is the best- dont you think its wicked the way the rise up from the ground and iron fench holds a pear in his hand! and he still looks scary! Develish

you know, in all the time i've watched it, i've never actually decided who i like the best! how often is it on on the challenge network? i just looked through 24 hours of the scheduling and couldn't find it. some of the theme ingredients are just TOO MUCH!!!! Big Grin Confused

but it's still fun to watch, isn't it? it's AMAZING that they almost ALWAYS seem to come up with a dessert dish. last time i was in the states, broccoli was one of the theme ingredients...one made broc. ice cream, the other made broc. MOUSSE! Blurgh
