[salamenceking1]

i have no job. Thumbs up if you agree!?!

[flipc15xo]

Everyone stop arguing about all this stuff and just enjoy the video!

I know I enjoyed it :))

[chandini241]

I know I am not playing into the Hollywood magic but I have to wonder what happens to the piles of unused food/ingredients...I love the show but the idea of waste takes away a little...

[SharksKid]

Who cares what subjective "mojo" this show lacks compared to the Japanese version. Revel in the incredible creativity and delicious recipes these chefs come up with, instead.

[immarnel]

mario batali = fat bastard from austin powers lol

[dangerkatz]

@immarnel sept better behaved and can cook amazing food.

[akinasukizakura]

普通の家庭料理に見えるｗｗｗ

[S2happy44]

so... much... SHRIMP!@$!@$

[Bngkillerxxx]

this is the ufc of the kitchen :0

[txw8065]

I love Mario Batali!! bring him back!! :{

[BeyondTheTreeline]

I wanna see Fatali plate a stuffed ginger pony tail with a side of cheek sweat au jus. Gingers are gross...

[Vezoma]

@BeyondTheTreeline that's not prejudice at all

[mynamesatan]

does mario batali only own orange crocs?

[NY152A]

Can't agree more. Plus, isn't there anything else for the chairman to say rather than just keep saying the same thing over and over, again and again every time. It's so boring and brainless. Just like remembering the script to say every week or whenever he is there. His uncle or the chairman of Iron chef Japan, on the other hand, always have something to say (or at least some reasons) before he shows the ingredient or before announce the winner. So uncomparison...

[Potterpuppetpals98]

bobby flay SHOULD NOT be an iron chef he cooks the same all the time

[Bluedrake89]

@Potterpuppetpals98

Yeah, I noticed that about him. Batali and Morimoto have a great deal of showmanship and obvious love for what they do. Cora is fun and energetic, but Flay comes off as business-like. If he was the only Iron Chef it wouldn't be so bad, but the contrast against the others doesn't help the effect.

[TheWhiteSupremacy]

LEZBO BATTLE!!!

[terrorhunter]

never liked the way they say allez cuisine on iron chef america

[vicky22022]

as much as i love shrimps, seeing piles and mountains of shrimps on the secret ingredient altar grossed me a weeeeee bit. :(

[rosscoe01]

I personally dont think Flay should be an iron chef lol! I'm not hating but I think jaime oliver or ramsey would be amazing lol. Ramsey is an ass but a tolerable ass/ ass ppl like to watch Flay is rather arrogant tho lol.. I dunno i'm js

[KatiushaVN4]

Alton Brown looks stupid

[Goldbloodeddragon]

2:07

I'm the only one who thought "fallout 3" when I heard this.

[macdeath69]

Allez cuisiner !!!

[MrNaglest12]

this is my new favorite episode even though i havent seen it besides I LOVE SHRIMP

[VickieED]

I love Batali. he's got such a great personality and sense of humor. I think he'd be fun to just hang out with.

[iateurwifewfavabeans]

the judges are the worst...they know very little about good cuisine IMHO !

[sitului1]

the chairman bothers me.... 

[muckraker87]

Why does the chairman bow to the yellow bell pepper? LOL

[LuigiDodgeball]

@muckraker87 In the original series, the chairman always ate that sort of pepper in the opening, I think its supposed to be an homage to him, as Mark calls him his uncle as well.

[carbon735]

lol if the girl was to pick morimoto she wouldve dropped dead. SHRIMP

[sumatsu1]

Thats right People at 00:03 you must bow down to the pepper its a japanesse tradition :P

[MrGrevy]

@sumatsu1 Hahahahah Japs are so goofy.

[MrGrevy]

Why are there so many japs on this version?? It's supposed to be Iron Chef AMERICA. Disgusting.

[bestkindofkarma]

@MrGrevy Yeah, it's Iron Chef AMERICA that derrives from Iron Chef JAPAN. The whole point of the show is to celebrate the diversity of food and explore international cuisine. It say's it all in the into "our nimble chairman has brought together the pungent flavours of East and West". Your ignorance is disguting, not the "Japs".

[MrGrevy]

@bestkindofkarma Yeah you're right. Mass murdering 3000 Americans and conducting the bataan death march - that's not disgusting - clearly I am much worse than either of those events. It's amazing to me that mentally ill people like you actually exist, thrive and even worse, don't see how horrible and backwards your thinking is.

[bestkindofkarma]

dgfdg

[bestkindofkarma]

@MrGrevy jhgjh

[makeupheaven101]

I <3 the way the chairman looks when he announces the Secret Ingredient

[DeadfastShadow]

oh and the "Allez Cuisine!" was too strong. Guys like an overly nervous chihuahua D: calm down li'l fella. You'll be alright. *pats his head*

[DeadfastShadow]

it's just too busy and loud feeling for me though even when they try their hand at being distinguished it kind of just falls apart in the hands like over cooked cabbage D: also, the quiet reserve but perfectly calculated boisterous advance of the original IC's Chairman Kaga is lost on this young fellow :0 the only thing that's missing from his little "dance" is fireworks and a generic metal guitar solo. This just reminds me of NASCAR with cooking D: *navigates back to IC: J*

[MrGrevy]

@DeadfastShadow Ahhh, the bigot speaks! How nice. Evidently you are a pop culture educated moron. Ever even been to a Nascar race? Do you have a clue what you're talking about? Gotta love the close minded folks who make up the dainty, effeminate pseudo elites!

[bestkindofkarma]

@MrGrevy Did anyone mention the militaristic background of Japan? No, because it's a fucking cooking show. But you're right, what was I thinking not hating an entire race of people based on an event 99% of them had no control over? Last time I checked, Morimoto hasn't killed anyone. Hate the fact it happened, but shouldn't your "forward" thinking tell you it's irrational and just plain stupid to hate Japanese chefs and judges on a television show for something they had no part in?

[MrGrevy]

@bestkindofkarma Well they kinda shove it in our face when the chairman does his karate move - it's like - yeah we can kill you if we want...ya know?

[bestkindofkarma]

@MrGrevy I sincerely doubt that Mark Dacascis (the AMERICAN actor who plays chairman) doing blackflips at the begining is code for "i could kill you" and more along the lines of "wow this should make for great television and even if it doesn't I get to jump around alot" lol

[bestkindofkarma]

@bestkindofkarma Dacascos* and sorry about the random letters the little one got a hold of the computer

[MrGrevy]

@bestkindofkarma Well that's my point - I think we really have to be wary of these people. I mean, last time they got us with a surprise attack...and now we have a seemingly genuine, nice, entertaining guy with deadly skills. I think that spells disaster if we let our guard down. We have to learn from the past and be vigilant ya know?

[bestkindofkarma]

@MrGrevy he's an American actor! I just hope you see that being afraid, or wary, or holding a grudge on an entire race because of one event is silly. And i hope that you can get over it because if you're wary of an actor on tv i don't know how you'd be able to leave your house in the morning! Shit happens, just have to let it go.

[MrGrevy]

@bestkindofkarma It's not easy. There are crazy people everywhere. We just have to keep fighting ahead though.

[CaptainPlanet117]

why is it like a fighting competition so sick

[ninjafatballz]

I would never in a billion years ever think of most the stuff these people make! amazing! I want to eat some!! and the fact they do it in one hour blows my fucking mind.

[legriec]

So, I've tried...I've really tired, but I just can't seem to love IC:A as much as IC:Japan. The whole show just bothers me. I love the Iron Chefs don't get me wrong. It's just missing some mojo for me or something. I love the ingrediants but I'm wondering if it's just to commercially for me. Plus can the compeditor win just once, and some of the judges just piss me off....ok...done with my rant :) lol

[mchan2048]

i wasn't here for the show, I was here for the food LOL ... their food looks so good.

[legriec]

Exactly, I think that's why I loved IC: Japan so much they focused on the food so well. I think it's the commercial-ness of it that gets me. The Chairman in IC: Japan did this like 10 min montage on the ingredient that was really cool...I miss that.

[getDun2012]

@mchan2048 what does his uncle say?

[MattDee888]

@getDun2012

A la cuisine! (french)

[TheYoRomeo]

@MattDee888 I always thought it was a spin on ALA KAZAM! Ya know, like "Let the magic begin"?

[tough88]

@legriec the thing holding me back from loving IC:Japan is the godawful dubbing.

[Potterpuppetpals98]

@legriec as long as u dont hate it completely I can totally understand

[Potterpuppetpals98]

@legriec as long as u dont hate it completely I can totally understand the judges piss me off sometimes to normally when the say something bad about batali's food

[ShatterEffectt]

@legriec it's rigged that's why the challengers never win. When Bobby flay ties Susur Lee, you known it's freaking rigged. But Batali is a top 10 chef in the world so it's not surprising he wins all the time.

[l1veformusic]

in the words of ramsay, look its "fanta pants"

[fatsotomuscles]

I see the Sriracha on Batali's side!

[renovawolborg]

EPIC FLAVORS!

[hotstep05]

filipino rocks!

[johnnyboygoodboy]

check the iron chef inside the whitehouse...filipina who won the title...

[MrMax7200]

mario is kind of a nutter, but what awsome chef isn't. look at ramsay LOL

[EsotericDesi]

ICA Rocks...

[teamfat666]

I knew I had watched this episode recently, took me a while to find it again. The first time I didn't notice that battle was misspelled in the title.

[TheMrpalid]

mmmmmm, i love shrimp

[strid3r27]

MARIO BATALI!!!~~~~~

[nightowl19]
