Who's Your Favourite Chef?

[PankySmooch]

With so many cooking shows on TV my favourite has to be Raymond Blanc with his wonderful recipes and laid back approach he makes it look so easy.

My second favourite has to be Keith Floyd, although I'd never attempt any of his recipes he made it look so easy on his travels abroad back in the day and his insistence of a slurp during cooking makes it great viewing

[ummmm]

James Martin, Gordon Ramsay, Rick Stein. I like them all to be fair...

James Martin for me. He is so..........lovely!

Marcus Wareing. I hate cooking but he is such a perfectionist with high expectations and very pleasant on the eye too.

Looking at him, I think James Martin's fame has gone to his stomach:-)

[gingejbee]

I agree PS......Raymond is so enthusiastic...he's the only one who can flirt with women, men and vegetables!

[mazie]

Me... I'm the only one that gets anything cooked in this house

[Arksided]

For me it has to be that Kieth Floyd fella. he knew what he was doing when cooking. Nigella comes a close second though...

[sherrardk]

I like Tom Kerridge, he seems to just make 'normal' food.

[gingejbee]

Nigella Lawson is NOT a chef......

[ummmm]

She's a home cook who can't even chop.

[Tilly2]

.....and she cooks with her coat on. That drives me potty.

[Arksided]

No wonder I can't cook.

[woofgang]

James Martin and Tom Kerridge

The other chefs don't suck a cucumber like Nigella does;-)

Raymond Blanc is very cookable - his book on Blanc Vite is a masterpiece and so easy to follow.

Tom Kerridge or Nigel Slater following......

I've been watching Kew on a plate & Raymondo's recipes seem very accessible. I hope to be following some when my allotment starts producing.
