5.0 out of 5 stars As always, the best of the best, October 1, 2007

I love all of Lidia's Italian cooking shows. She is a very good teacher and explains things clearly. I've tried many of her recipes and they are wonderful. I also like the style of her presentation -- organized and calm, but with plenty of explanations and interesting points. She often has guests, whether other chefs or family. People on Lidia's shows feel comfortable being there, and it makes me feel comfortable watching the show and learning. I really detest the Food Network shows -- I don't need someone shouting "Bam!" at me or having flashy camerawork to be entertained. I'm a cook and I'm not watching these shows to get some sort of adrenaline rush. Lidia's style is more Zen-like and focuses on an understanding of the creative process in cooking, which is my personal preference in a cooking show.
The one complaint I have about this particular series is that it is very expensive. It would be nice if it were more affordable.
