Hungry for a laugh? The BBC serves up more than a few chuckles in this engaging sitcom about imperious chef Gareth Blackstock (Lenny Henry), a stern taskmaster who runs his kitchen with an iron fist, a lightning tongue, and a silver palate. The show combines some of the best elements of episodic drama and zany comedy, generously seasoned with sensual splashes of fine French cuisine. (Picture Julia Child crossed with Fawlty Towers' John Cleese following a script by the creators of Thirtysomething and you get the general idea.) Blackstock is a brilliant, egotistical black chef running an all-white kitchen--until, that is, his wife maneuvers him into hiring an old school chum. Challenges mount as the restaurant faces bankruptcy and Blackstock decides to risk everything to buy it. Could fulfilling his dream wind up costing the king of the kitchen his home and savings? Supported by a talented ensemble cast, the dramatic story arc develops gradually enough to keep viewers wanting more, while individual episodes rest on more traditional sitcom gags--like when the new apprentice chef loses a Band-Aid somewhere in the kitchen but can't tell which gourmet dish it landed in. Later, Blackstock, the ultimate perfectionist, devises his most perfect mouthwatering meal and scours the shady underside of England's green and pleasant countryside for the perfect closer... the king of cheeses, an illegal unpasteurized stilton. Gradually the supporting characters are given more room to grow--especially charming young Everton (Roger Griffiths), the bumbling, insecure prep cook. When Blackstock's boorish Jamaican father (Oliver Samuels) browbeats the "serious professional" into abandoning haute cuisine for a night featuring Caribbean food, it's Everton's legendary dumplings that save the day. (Watching him carefully prepare his Guinness punch might be worth the price of the set alone.) Those expecting the surreal hysteria of Monty Python or similar classic British comedies might not care for Chef's subtleties, but those interested in quality television mixed with fine food and sprinkled with a few decent laughs will be more than satisfied by what this show has to offer. --Grant Balfour


Description

Meet Britain's finest -- and most ill-tempered -- chef, Gareth Blackstock (Lenny Henry), of the prestigious Le Chateau Anglais restaurant. Each meal is a masterpiece. Just don't ask for salt. Chef Blackstock rules his kitchen with an iron ladle and puts up with no slacking. The trouble is that his underpaid and overworked kitchen staff is littered with slackers. Tuck in and prepare to double over in laughter with this hilarious and much loved comedy series from the BBC!

5.0étoiles sur 5 Lenny Henry Is Brilliant, Avril 15 2009
I've liked Chef! for years but had only seen it on VHS, with this DVD box set the quality, particularly the sound quality, is a huge improvement such that you can hear jokes you may have missed on the VHS version. This set includes every episode. I'm constantly introducing new friends to this show, one or two episodes and they're hooked. It's a shame this show only ran for 3 years, it was original and brilliant and unlike anything you're likely to find on TV nowadays. The set is lacking in special features but the couple interviews it does have will give you insight into how the show was created. Overall I'm very pleased with this product.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A really good series, Mars 9 2009
Par B. da Costa - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I really enjoyed the series when it played on TV, and always wondered about episodes I had missed, so I bought the complete series. It was great to see the ones I had missed, and even the ones I had seen before. Now if only they had had Dawn French (Lenny Henry's wife in real life) as a guest on one episode, that would have made it superb! Definitely recommended!

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great Laughs, Déc 3 2008
Having worked in the hospitalty industry specifically kitchens for years, it brings back some excellent memories of what can and will happen in kitchens. It is fairly accurate as to the snafus that do actually happen in the kitchens. It is a delightful comedy.
