The Good Cook BBC1 7:30pm.. Fridays.. take a peep next week if you fancy..

Two of my favourite TV chefs/cooks both happen to be men

The 'Good Cook' Simon Hopkinson



and Levi Roots


Makes me wonder if men realy are better cooks than us women!!

I do like the no fuss approach to great food!!
Both have cook books available in stores, although I learn better by watching!!

  1. I love these cooking programmes and I see you picked two of the best to watch. I think perhaps men take more time to perfect their cooking skills hence why most of our Top Chefs happen to be men.

    Women in my opinion will always be the best cooks, the term "soul food" (didn't just come by because of collard greens and corn on the cob)I feel is appropriate for thats what a woman is to her cooking she always puts love, energy and effort into creating what she knows will nourish her family.
    I beg to differ let any man argue with me on that fact!!!

  2. Ha ha - it's funny, when I really cook, I will put my heart and soul into it!! that's if i'm making the effort.. after years of cooking for the 'kids' trust me.. after a while .. it's 'let me just knock up something..anything.. to the point i've heard it mentioned - I don't put any love into it anymore..cheek!! o-k-ay - what that means is.. you're up!!
    Take centre stage with my blessing lol

    I think alot of us women now how huge pressures on our time, .. can't be like 'big mommas hse' every day.. not for me anyway.. not in 2011+
    If that changes.. i'll let you know:)Anyway..a man in the kitchen is a sexy thing.. the kitchen.. the bathroom.. the hallway...lol

  6. @Reggie do you have a signature dish?
    I do find them inspiring - I keep meaning to experiment more. I have a confession. one of the simplest things to make (i'm told) i've never made. Bread.
    I love to bake. I have 1 cake that I make. I call it my .. plain cake. Smells good and tastes nice!!
