At one time it would have been Emeril.. but it's Bobby Flay for me.

    Tommy Tang... for no other reason than he is such an oddball. He's like a cartoon character.

    Guy Fieri is my all time favourite. I love this guy. Also, Alex Guarnaschelli, Cat Cora, Ina Garten - Barefoot contessa (OMG YUMMY FOOD) & Bobby Flay.

    ^^ I find Ina a little dry but perhaps I haven't given her a fair chance??

    The only channels on in our house tend to be Food Network or Cooking Channel, so I have no favorite particular chef HOWEVER Chopped is the staple show. It's impossible to watch 30 seconds of it without being like, 'awww shiiiiiiiiiit, have to see how this turns out!'.

    Favorite TV chefs: Chopped contestants :)

    Chopped is my favourite!

    And yes, she is a little dry but her food is UNBELIEVABLE which is how she gets a top spot on my list :)

    Noted, next time I come across the show I won't switch to another channel!! Have you ever watched Pioneer Woman? I feel like it's the same tone (likely not the same type of food though).

    Yes and I agree same tone, funny enough I usually switch the channel on that one haha. If you like lasagna and want your world to be rocked you should try Ina's lasagna recipe, or her split pea soup, or her chicken noodle soup or her sundried tomato dip. You can't go wrong with her recipes. Its sinful.

    Giada DeLaurentis on mute. Can't stand her "extra italian" pronunciation, but she's easy on the eyes.

    Actual cooking would be Bobby Flay and Alton Brown
