Giada De Laurentis---good recipes, easy to make, and she is a sweetheart.

Two Fat Ladies, or Hugh Fernley-Whittingstall for me!Gordon Ramsey Can't cook! I've eaten twice at his restaurants and didn't pay each time as it was inedible

Anthony Bourdain. As an aging punk who is a "traveler" and not a tourist I really enjoy his take on food and how to enjoy it. If the locals are eating it, dig in.I also love the immortal Julia Child, the late Jeff Smith, Bobby Flay, Emeril, there are quite a few more that I could mention.By the way it was the "Galloping Gourmet", Frolicking is pretty close though =^)

Justin Wilson. Grew up watching him with my dad. Also, Paula Deen & Rachel Ray

Jaime oliver, his an amazing chef, i have all of his books, and have made every single dish and they have all been delicous
