Early 80s Chinese cooking show starring celebrity chef Martin Yan, airing on PBS station KQED. This is a US continuation of the Canadian syndicated series of the same name that ran from 1978 to 1982. The show features Chef Martin Yan as the presenter, and focused on Chinese-oriented cooking delivered with Chef Yan’s trademark humor and wit, filmed live before a studio audience who were presented the prepared dishes for sampling and commentary.
There’s a few episodes on YouTube as well. Not sure about PeerTube.
I used to watch this as a kid with my mom. At the time he was the only Chinese person on TV that was Asian that wasn’t a comedic relief or some kungfu villain.
I still cook some of his dishes. With how cheap Asian cooking is, there is no reason to eat taco bell except for convenience.
