I am working on a PBS style talk show where the topic is food, mostly high end restaurants in trendy places like NYC and LA, and gourmet recipes. I would like to change things up a little and relate to a younger, less prestigious audience, while still keep the credibility of the chefs involved. So far some of my ideas for new segments include: a night life/drink special; meal on a budget daily recipe (think typical morning shows); preparing exotic food from foreign countries, and restaurant guides to areas of Manhattan and other large cities....What do you think? What would you, the auidience like to see on this type of show? Any ideas? Also keep in mind the visual quality is limited/we do not have the resources for a Food Network-like show. Thank You.|||Chef of the Week -- highlight her/him and their achievements, feature a recipe from them. Nutrition Tips -- maybe a "nutrient of the week" or have a dietitian on to break down the confusion about anti-oxidants, trans-fats, phytoestrogens, that sort of thing. Maybe call it a "Nutrition Bite" (byte?) Entertaining tips -- how to set up a buffet for easy service, when to hire a bartender and waitstaff for a home party (and where to find them), latest table decor ideas, party favors: in or out?, music for a dinner party|||cooking on a budget, you know, how to be able to create terrific foods for not a lot of money.|||Fast and fabulous meals. When preparing exotic foods, try to keep it simpler for at-home chefs who may be short on time and ability.|||I agree on the comfort food also sushi would be a fun segment to watch... Try a segment on seafood!! so many people are scared to try some kinds like crawfish and all that in the south we have a crawfish boils and they are big during this time of the year..i like the exotic food idea thats a good one. I would like to see a casserole show too.. i'm always looking for a good casserole to make along with dessert|||Meal on a budget and also smaller-scale meals would be great ideas. Maybe a lesson on how to use spices other than the mainstream salt, pepper, garlic, and Lawry's that everyone has in their kitchen? A lot of people are afraid to try "exotic-sounding" spices like coriander or tarragon because they're not sure how to use them.|||Looking for something trendy and relevant? Try a focus on what young people are actually into like the vegetarian/vegan/raw consciousness that is so hot and relevant right now with animal rights, global warming and the economy being such important issues for young people today..You can feature vegetarian chefs, authors, politicians (Dennis Kucinich, D Ohio) and concerned people whose consciousness and concerns have brought them to this way of life. You can start with http://www.your-vegetarian-kitchen.com/h鈥?/a> and take a look at the review I wrote on Andrew Kimbrell's book Your Right To Know on Genetically Modified Foods and the political implications of it. You can follow this link to it http://www.your-vegetarian-kitchen.com/y鈥?/a> Neat huh? And make it a point to cover the Chicago Green Festival in May at McCormick Place. You'll have a ready made forum to explore and choose from. Good Luck! It sounds like a great idea to me..|||The first one that comes to my mind is a "comfort" food segment. Comfort foods are VERY popular right now, both for young and old.|||If you are looking at younger viewers as a market think about the marketability. Club scene, do they have food to eat as well. things that appeal to the younger sect. Like sushi, vegan food, micro/macro biotics. I really like the idea about ethnic cultures and food. How about street vendors in NYC best street vendor food? Or how about you find some 20-30 somethings a group or one or two of them and follow their food style that day? could be documentary-ish and cool. Have fun, sounds like a great idea!|||All that and how to incorporate it into cooking for two
