The greatest movie ever made..!

just watch it!

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This is the benchmark by which other cooking shows should be measured.Very informative with takeaways in every show that are immediately usable by cooks with any level of skill or knowledge. It's excellent. Very informative and paced a little faster than other shows so he covers a lot more ground so it doesn't drag with a lot of idle chatter. The section on knife sharpening helped me correct a small mistake I have made for years. I say this as being someone who can't stand watching the other shows he has put out with the exception of the other show he did in his home with his family.

I stayed away from Gordon's shows for quite some time when I heard of his penchant for swear words on live television. But few season's of Hell's kitchen and Kitchen nightmares shows you that beneath the dragon breath's of fire and heavily furrowed brows is actually a very kind hearted honest man. And this shows forth in his cookery show. No nonsense,no going into culinary histories or humor ( which by the way is Alton Brown's signature forte), this show is packed with tips and most importantly, superb food related information. He cooks right in front of you. And you don't have to wait to see the onions turn golden brown, or the vegetables al dente. Its a must watch. Even without the swear words !!!
