Synopsis :

Beautiful cooking is a Hong Kong variety show broadcast on TVB. The show began broadcasting in May 28, 2006 hosted by Ronald Cheng, Alex Fong and Edmond Leung. This is the second season of this variety show.

The game participants include 3 female Hong Kong celebrities. Usually the girls are invited for their beauty or celebrity status. The girls are given an apron to wear on top of the clothes they come in.

Competition 1
For the first competition, a master chef will cook a more complicated dish and then explain the recipe and cooking procedure. The female celebrities are then requested to match the chef's dish by trying to imitate the cooking and recipe.

Competition 2
In competition 2, the three contestants are presented with a live seafood (fish, eel, crab, squid…etc) to prepare and cook a dish. They must kill, clean and prepare the seafood all by themselves.

Points
When the dish is finished, the hosts, guest judges and the guest chef gets to sample the dishes and on a scale of -10 to 10, they give out a score. Negative scores are often given. One of the hosts actually got sick from eating one of the celebrities' dish and skipped a day's filming.[citation needed] Selected members of the audience also get a chance to try the dishes and make additional comments. Winners are announced at the end of the show.

Notes:
My friends told me that this was an interesting game show and I should watch it. I didn't watch the first season of Beautiful Cooking so I really had no idea what it was about. I download one episode of Beautiful Cooking II and its quite funny. Initially it was suppose to have 18 episodes but now they have extended it till 26 episodes. More laugh for us, I suppose.
