Yes, Isilzha, Ming is just ONE example. Another would be Martin Yan...one of my FAVORITE Asian chefs. Also,
Wok with Yan starring Stephen Yan. The show was first produced in Vancouver, Canada by the CBC from 1980 to 1982. Ended up on PBS, here in the states.
I really liked
Wok with Yan, as Stephen would wear a different apron every episode with a "Wok pun" lettered on it.
"Wok Goes Up Must Come Down" "You Are Wok You Eat" "Wok Like a Man"
There are just a few examples...LOL!
Speaking of ethnic shows...what ever happened to those two brilliant black ladies...they used to make soul food and other wonderful African or Creole delights...in fact...if I remember correctly, one lady had real short reddish hair...and the other was a rather large lady. I've missed seeing that show for a long time...no repeats anywhere I've seen.
Two Fat Ladies...one of my all-time faves...gone. One lady died, and that spelled the end of one of the funniest and most enjoyable shows on Food Network. That really saddened me. I wonder if a box set will ever be released on "Two Fat Ladies"?
Oh well...enough for tonight.
