Poh is like a breath of fresh air every wednesday evening.its great to have a person on Tv with such a down to earth nature.
To those who say she got the show because of her looks… well sure she is attractive but she can cook also and she dosnt go on with all the “look at me attitude” of most other cooks on tv.

I watched her show last Sat & wished she’d stop laughing just about everything! I think it’s a sign of inconfidence/insecurity/incompetence when a laughter breaks out over trivial things.

Much rather have Kylie Kwong or Maeve O’ Mara. Imagine Jamie Oliver/Rick Stein/Gordon Ramsay laughing over nothing!

Poh’s “laughing stock” – imagine that for a soup!

The show tonight on gnocci and dumpling making was excellent, I enjoyed it very much and plan to try making them myself.
Where in S.A. is the chef and his restaurant who does the Tuscan food?

Poh,
I spent several years in Malaysia during the early 80′s & I was wondering if you had recipes for a couple of my old time mukan fav’s… Peanut butter pancakes from “The Temple of a Thousand Rip-offs” on Penang Island, crispy & spicy chicken from local food vendors with their blast furnace woks and finally char koi te ou (double egg..double onion + extra chilli). I apologise for the spelling… But these were absolutely fabulous dishes that I’ve been unable to find the recipes for despite buying several Malay & Asian cook books. Looking forward to your reply. All the best.

I watched the first, but like others here the incessant (nervous?) laughter will stop me from watching again.

I’d love to watch this, I really would. She’s a really clever cook and I’d love to learn from her. But. That bloody laugh. She laughs at everything. All the time. It’s so annoying. argh.

Even if Poh did only get her own show because she was “Asian”, “cute”, and “easy on the eye” as Tony H. suggests, I’d have no problem with it. In fact I consider it a massive step forward by Australian TV. It should happen more often. Kathleen de Leon could be the next cab off the rank.

Naturally I am speaking strictly from a perspective of good television and my comments have nothing to do with my own pecadillos.

Another annoying “reality” show ‘celeb’ given a show because she’s easy on the eye. If she was not Asian and cute (eg Julie) would she get her own show? Going on the promos, she doesn’t do much cooking, and just laughs constantly (conciously?). Maybe she should be the food correspondent on the ABC news service. But that might require her to actually do something. Oh hum. More tax-payer dollars spent wisely,

Great review David. Hope the show does well.

Interesting how viewers get different impressions of (highly edited) reality show contestants. I thought Poh was talented, hardworking, passionate about food and loyal to the teams she was part of.
