“Kitchen Stories” cooking show begins airing on GMA News TV
THREE dashing student chefs JM, Charles, and James, and the four delightful ladies Steffi, Kim, Agatha, and Cathleya discover the joys of cooking but also valuable lessons that can be applied to daily living in the newest GMA News TV series, Kitchen Stories.
The Center for Culinary Arts (CCA, Manila), the country’s pioneer and premier institution for culinary learning, makes a breakthrough in the broadcast platform with a TV cooking show series that features young students showcasing their skills as they address day-to-day concerns experienced by people their age.
Each 15-minute episode will feature the young student-chefs who are compelled to accomplish 13 mini web cooking shows as a return of good deed to their school. They will deal with situations that are commonly encountered in the household kitchen, like how to prepare food for a housewarming event, what are easy-to-cook healthy alternatives, or what ingredients to get to be able to cook budget-friendly dishes, and many others.
The seven youths, who are actual students enrolled at CCA, embody the youthful vigor and creative enthusiasm of the typical CCA student and the recipes they will be preparing are not only easy to prepare but also a reflection of their mastery of the culinary skills they have learned from the school. Also, the Kitchen Stories hosts are already part of the Kitchen Stories web version.
Mark A. Reyes V, film and television director from GMA, is the director of the show. Chef Mira Cruz, CCA chef-instructor and senior chef consultant for the newly opened Epicurious restaurant in the East Wing of Shangri-La Plaza Mall.
