ou_chia_ling Hello to all Iron Chef fans - hope you all can help me out with this. ^_^ I was wondering if anyone knew the website where you can supposedly petition for the release of the original Japanese cooking show 'Iron Chef' or 'Ryori no Tetsujin' ? I have been looking everywhere for the DVDs or VHS tapings on that show but to no avail. Anyone have any idea where I could get them ? It was undoubtedly one of my favorite TV shows while living in the States. But then I moved overseas and couldn't get FoodTv on the local cable subscription and am now desperate for any tapings either on VHS or DVDs on the original Japanese cooking shows. Please, if anyone out there have any idea of where to get them, I would really appreciate your inputs/comments =) Iron Chef (Japan) rules! It was undoubtedly the most entertaining cooking show ever aired!

PeteRoy I started watching Iron Chef recently and I like it.The host and the Iron Chefs very interesting. The host talk in a unfamiliar way and the Iron Chef look like Samurais.This cooking show is a lot better than other cooking shows.

terp_92 I love Iron Chef. What an idea for a show!! I love the premise of bringing renowned chefs from all over Japan and the world to challenge Chairman Kaga's Iron Chefs, and to have them create dishes on the spot using the theme ingredient announced at the beginning. It's also fun to listen to the play-by-play announcing; you'd think this was a sports events.The fact that these chefs can prepare 4-6 dishes on the spot in one hour attests to their amazing skills and imagination, especially when an Iron Chef of one cooking style is confronted with a theme ingredient they normally don't use. I wish I was there to taste some of their amazing creations.What astounds me about the show is how seriously some challengers take this, like the Italian expatriate chefs and their battles against Iron Chef Italian Masahiko Kobe, and the Ohta Factions' (a society of Japanese chefs who are staunchly traditional in their cooking techniques) war against Iron Chef Japanese Masaharu Morimoto.I can't wait for IC3 next month. My local cable company just recently added the Food Network, so I didn't see the original Bobby Flay/Morimoto contest. After watching what Morimoto has done in previous episodes, I really can't see Flay winning. I've also thought about whether Emeril would someday appear on Iron Chef, but I think he's a bit too laidback for something as tense and fast-paced as this.

Hex I just have to say, this is the greatest cooking show I've ever seen. One of my roommates watches the food channel all the time, and I've always hated everything I've seen until this show came along. In response to the other comment: I have seen several women go up against the IRON CHEFS, and I'm sure several have won. There are two retired Iron Chef Japanese, and the current one is Masharu Morimoto. There is one retired Iron Chef French, the current one is Hiroyuki Sakai. Iron Chef Chinese is Chen Kenichi and the most recent addition is Iron Chef Italian, Masahiko Kobe. My favorite is definitely Iron Chef Japanese, the sexy Morimoto. Man would I LOVE to have him cook me up a tasty Japanese dinner. He is the top chef at Nobu, which is in in the Tri-Bec-A section of New York City. I'm definitely going to have to eat there soon. He makes the most wonderful looking Neo-Japanese dishes. From what I have heard on the show, he is respected in Japan for his skill, but disliked for his cooking style. He is not traditional at all, which upsets many "old school" Japanese cooks. They often go on the show, bad mouthing him and trying to take him down, but Morimotio has the highest win percentage of all the current Iron Chefs. CHECK THIS SHOW OUT!
