I love Lidia! She makes me feel like I can DO this! She is so easy to relate to and makes gourmet meals everyday meals! She can do no wrong in my book!

Was that kitchen in the building photographed at the beginning? 0.06 (0:01)

[cpritchard2001]

@ElQuba Sure was.

[ElQuba]

@cpritchard2001 Dear cp., Thanks for your response. . Your You-Tube page says: Last Visit Date:4 months ago; can't be right !? . I just thought that that comercial kitchen was not all that glamorous considering it was being used, for a T.V. program. (The floor looked dirty at the wall tiles (4:19); the power sockets look a bit old and odd, there are 4 screw holes there too, which could collect city-banned germs). . Thanks for posting; not on tv in my area. . Cheers. from, del-boy

Lidia is number one on my top ten list of great cook's.

[mccullen]

love lidia, but good luck making anything for five bucks that has sun-dried tomatoes and ricotta cheese in it.

[WikeddTung]

fyi pbs nyc. and that looks outrageously yummy. i'm making one tomorrow! : )

[MYheroMJrip]

that looked DELICIOUS. she is on MPT not PBS.

[wntoply6]

@MYheroMJrip hmm, lidia's most recent tv program is produced by wgbh-tv the pbs tv station in boston...therefore while she might be on MPT (not sure what that is, is it maryland public television?) her cooking show is produced by pbs.

[MYheroMJrip]

@wntoply6 yes its maryland public television. you're good. 

[wntoply6]

@MYheroMJrip thanks, but you do realize mpt is part of pbs don't you?

[MYheroMJrip]

@wntoply6 i never knew that

[wntoply6]

@wntoply6 yes, that's how it gets to show, nova, masterpiece theater, this old house, zoom, sesame street, et al.

wow she is my inspiration , i am italian too soo i love authentic italian food especially hers god bless her  best cook ever!

[MarcusLeepapi]

I love Lidia.... She cooks really well..... I watch her on Channel 11.3 here in Chicago... Our WTTW PBS Channel........

[scarypowers]

I wonder why she isn't on the Food Network channel instead of PBS?...I love her but PBS is not reliable for regular showtimes...

[FlipSnipeZ]

agreed

[copelandeva]

Lidia in on PBS because the Food Network commercializes everything and the chefs are only worried about making cheap meals as fast as they can. PBS, regular or not, has no commercial breaks and is AWESOME.

[scarypowers]

i love her and would love to meet her someday

[freebrook]

@scarypowers because PBS is better than the Food Channel.

[MarcusLeepapi]

Thanks so much for this 5 minute one...... I love Lidia's cooking so much.... I cook at home here in Chicago because of her.....

[BellaTraveler]

Love Lidia - thanks for posting this video!

[trevorpinnocky]

very nice post. my favorite chef in the italian cuisine. i hope her show doesn't go the way of the other 'quick n easy' cooking shows.
