Thank you for making the fried rice, so good FUIYOH!
Hello uncle.
Fuiyoh!
I think you would want to review Adam Ragusea…….
It's your niece here! Please send me a check for BTS merch....FUIYOH!!! 🙏🏾💜
now your turn to make fried rice for me
I find it funny Uncle Roger says "They take simple dish and make is fancy no need. Just make good food." and the first thing they do is "how can we make if fancy?"
Then Rie slowly starts to appear
because that's the purpose of the show
LOL
The lady butchered it completely. LET'S DO EVERYTHING HE DOESN'T LIKE!
He emphasizes simplicity and excellence and when faces with that seemingly insurmountable task- they say, how do we fuck it up? Make it African, avoid making what uncle Roger asks for and make another rice dish
i'm impressed that Uncle Roger looks so young, comparable to his nephew Nigel.
His skincare is MSG
@@keziachiarens1280 Make S*it Good also Make Skin Glows
Which is strange because Uncle Roger claims to be about 52 while Nigel will be 32 March /2023
I mean they're the same person so yea 😭
@@cartis_wife3701 r/woosh
Feeding Uncle Roger is the same as feeding Gordon Ramsay.
XD SO TRUE
But worse…
uncle roger is harsher than him 😂
Imagine both of them entering your restaurant with a camera crew....
@@gauloiseguyill just close down
I dont mind any of the guests helping cook, but i miss just steven just cooking and spiraling then learning and pulling it off on his own and being proud
Yeah the guests are mid
I like consultations with chefs and friends, but this had none of the chaos of what makes the show. Cool guest, obviously skilled, but bad for the format to just have someone else do all the cooking.
Also, i've heard of uncle roger but never seen him, hes amazing.
Same
I second that!
Same
Genius way to neutralize most of Uncle Roger's power by making him a fried rice he's never had before. Fantastic ep and super interesting since I barely know anything about African cuisine. This was a delight.
this is such a funny and accurate observation.
Exactly my thoughts lol. When you give someone something they don't quite have an established baseline for, they have to judge it more empirically instead of going to comparisons
“Neutralize most of Uncle Roger’s power” is a great way to describe it 🤣
@RusaForever please relax… it’s just food that you didn’t eat with them. also, just because it’s not ASIAN fried rice doesn’t mean it isn’t authentic, this version of a simple dish is authentic to West Africa.
Someone is bitching because they totally missed the concept of the show which is not to be strictly authentic
I'm not sure Stephen and Kiano were prepared for Uncle Roger's savage sense of humor. They had to bring out Nigel at the end so they could readjust.Overall this was a lot of fun. This is my first time watching Stephen and Kiano. They were both enjoyable to watch and obviously Uncle Roger is always a treat. Also Kiano is so gorgeous.
Nigel had to apologize for how savage Uncle Roger could get. When Uncle Roger puts things under the satirical microscope, he pulls no punches.
As a chef of 30 years and a fellow steven.....when that pretty lady said "STEVEN!!!" when he over boiled that pan my life flashed before my eyes a few times lol ....lets just say it felt like deja vu
"When you take a shit, your butt spicy, that how you wake up"
Uncle Roger really knows how to make solid dinner conversation
as a Malaysian, yup almost everyday my butt spicy sometimes we hardly sit🤣
He talked about shit two different ways. That's professional grade.
Uncle Roger: “Vegetable taste like sad.”
Kiano: “We will pretend we didn’t hear that.”
I loved the style of the first three episodes - seeing Steven cooking and learning so much in just 24 hours. Then serving on the balcony had such a nice vibe and great lighting - it was like an outdoor restaurant :)
So Keith's dish and Zach's dish has been granted. Does this mean Eugene Lee Yang's dish will be granted next season?
Steven's been so traumatised by Ronnie Cheing he just sous chefed this entire season. It's sad, cause it was fun watching Steven cook.
It TOTALLY DOES feel like that!! Ronny Chieng just scarred him 😭😭. I miss bold, head chef Steven….
I also feel like that guest deliberately selected something he knew Steven couldn't do--like he even said you'd need to take more time (beyond what he knew the time limit was) to even be close to successful. That just feels disingenuous.
@@EyeGlassTrainofMind There were a lot of moments that felt condescending to me. Probably not intentional but still.
i feel like this whole thing where challenges have *barely accomplishable* time limits have become more stressful than entertaining. seeing people succeed is nice too.
@@animuswonder The key part of the show that made it stand out was the stress. Obviously unhealthy amounts that are affecting the cast is too far. If that is the case then I think it's better not to do Dish Granted as the development, time limits and creativity as they learned made the show special. This is a different show and that's fine but perhaps they should do a different type of show. Everyone's mental health comes first and that may not be the issue that people are making it out to be but the bottom line is this season was a different show. Only they know what direction to go moving forward and I genuinely hope it isn't due to high stress because that's an awful thing to deal with.
Kiano’s face after Uncle Roger said “Uncle Roger like a nice big woman” was absolutely priceless lmao
AHAHAHAHA I KNOW RIGHT
He said thick, not big.
He said "thick" woman. It sounds like she preemptively said Thank you before hearing him say 'woman.' Once she realized what she thanked him for, she may have blushed out of mild embarassment. Either that, or it's clever video editing lol.
& when he kissed the prawn LMAO sitcom moment
That was the worst part of this video… sexual harassment isn’t funny. I felt so bad for her. Cringiest moment on dish granted yet.
Kiano is calm and prepared. My kind of cook. I liked her confidence in the kitchen. She can probably cook anything. Consider me a Kiano fan. The presentation was outstanding. Nice job all around.
I love that Uncle Roger’s final dish notes were “make it just a little dangerous”
I miss Steven cooking instead of his guests. I get it, 24hrs is a tight limit, especially if you're not even a pro chef. But that's what makes the show so relatable. But of course, it's also really stressful to pull it off on your own and some of these guests have unrealistic expectations and requests. I actually wouldn't mind you expanding that time limit to a few days or even a week. I just want to see you get your own spotlight.
I mean hes not even cooking here.🙄
Absolutely! If guests ask for something that takes time to marinate etc., then more time for an amateur cook like Steven is appropriate! I love Kiano and would actually love to watch a show just with her but for this show, the energy is just not the same without Steven leading the cooking and really starring in this show. He has so much heart that I miss experiencing in these latest episodes.
@@EyeGlassTrainofMind I agree. Sadly this season didn't feel like Dish Granted. I feel really bad even saying that but I was honestly let down.
Bruh they uncensored the curse words for this season as well
@@icelogical1239 that’s more to do with CZcams’s ridiculous algorithm and de-monetization than anything. A couple creators I follow had to resort to censoring when they’ve swore openly in the past.
Uncle Roger immediately serving them the meal they cooked… immediately establish dominance and good etiquette at the same time…but also this whole thing deffo felt like Uncle Roger was meeting his niece-in-law for the first time and roasting his nephew 😂
That's the Asian norm😂
As a Nigerian, this made me really happy 😅
Same😆
"If he doesn't know the dish or hasn't eaten it before, Uncle Roger can't roast us" is the idea that Steven and Kiano had when they thought of the African fried rice idea.
I’m still enjoying these episodes, but for me, I preferred when it was just Steven (+ Tony and crew) vs. the clock. I feel like I was way more invested in watching him struggle to learn and succeed in 24 hours, which made the final payoff more interesting as well. For this season, especially when Steven keeps taking a backseat, it’s kinda :/
Agreed. I feel like he barely talks this episode and Kiano (no hate on her just how it seemed) is running the whole entire thing. Like there’s whole stretches of this where he’s not even in the room for his own show.
i’d love to see Steven and Shane collab on a historical cooking show where they make historically accurate meals. “Tasting History with Max Miller” style but with Watcher humor!
I'd just love to see Shane cook Uncle Roger something
Oooooh I hope they have The Townsends over! And Mrs. Crocombe! Ooooh!
this is an amazing idea!
And of course, invite max to taste/cook dishes eventually, where else are you gonna get authentic gharum from--
This should be top comment!!! I would 100% love it. I feel like Steven does separate shows from Ryan and Shane, and it would be nice to see some cohesion between the founders.
Kiano definitely did all the work. Steven should be the one doing it next time with Kiano's guidance.
I love that Kiano is classy and soft-spoken. She seems fun yet so comforting to be around!
love the addition of the guest in the kitchen, but i do really miss steven coming up with the dish and presentation and actually attempting to cook it. maybe we can get a happy medium where he still participates in the planning and cooking process but gets the assistance he needs from guests so it doesn't get too stressful?
Steven was the guest. :(
Yeah! Like when they cooked for Matt Stonie. Tony was there to help Steven but Steven wasn't in the backseat, they were equal partners
I also miss the dish being what was actually asked for, just elevated or with fun twists, not, "ok, I hear what you're asking for, but let me totally disregard it or go in the complete opposite direction."
Like, with this episode, it was supposed to be simple Chinese style fried rice, but wasn't. In the last ep, Niki emphasized how nothing compliments Indonesian fried chicken than PLAIN white rice, so they went crazy with seasonings and cheese for the rice and decided on a risotto... like, it used to be, Shane would ask for mac and cheese and he'd get mac and cheese, and now it's like, had he been on this season, a guest would've cooked him chicken alfredo or something.
@@horohorosrin 100% agree. When Steven came up with the ideas (with the help of Tony, a few friends and internet videos) it really felt special and he didn't just think about the food, he made it special for the guest. I was always having happy tears, laughing and re-watching the episodes. I really feel terrible about all of the criticism that Steven and the crew are seeing. I hope they know it's constructive and we love what the show was. :)
Show is lame with the guest cooks. Ruins the entire premise. This episode was terrible.
The guests are cool but I could only imagine Steven alone getting roasted by uncle roger would of been hilarious 🤣🤣
True! That was the reason I clicked on the video, I forgot there were guests this season..
Seriously, it felt like the guest kept shutting down Uncle Roger's jokes.
I love how he said what he likes about the dish is how simple fried rice is, as they proceed to make a whole shopping list for one recipe 😂
Holy shit. Ronny Chieng legitimately bullied Steven so hard that he single handedly wiped the format of the show and turned it into some sort of guest chef...thing. And that was after he ironically pre-emptively called out the comments section for bullying Steven...when it's universally supportive of him lmao Disaster guest star.
This guest was awesome as her own entity, but what made this show magic was Steven in the kitchen by himself panicking and causing absolute chaos by trying to pull things together.
It would be perfect if Nigel then made a video critiquing Steven's technique in this video.
I was just thinking this too!!
Auntie Helen is currently reacting to this.
??? he didn't cook though lol
@@clutchfan3152 his lack of technique then
@@lifewithoutgoalposts9197 His technique was using a Nigerian chef because he couldn't take the heat after another Chinese Malaysian comedian roasted him so bad. lol
Steven, the charm and value of your shows is when you are the creator. That is why you became successful. The people love you and your take on these challenges... Not bringing in someone else to overshadow you.
It's marvelous to see Kiano's creative inspiration of making a prawn stock and saffron combination to cook rice instead of the usual, egg to give the "golden" rice its luxurious color and unique taste.
i think its so cute how they matched colours with uncle roger, i kind of miss the tohuwabohu of the early seasons but kiano was a lovely host and the food looked amazing
"Tohuwabohu." Love learning new words, thanks.
Steven probably needed a break, Ronny really destroyed him in the previous episode. Still, quite refreshing to see different culture inspired dishes! Now Im curious to taste Nigerian food.
Steven, hope to see you taking back the helm next season.
Keano is an absolute queen she stole the show ❤️ you go girl
25:36 Uncle Roger keep shooting his shot, he about to go somewhere you can't come back from...
Okay but like...why isn't anyone saying anything about Kiano having the most soothing voice and chill vibe. Feelin like a trance listenin to her go through all her cooking. No? Just me? I'm cool with it.
❤❤❤
I’m with you too many people hating in these comments
@@dajay2k waay too many
I could listen for hours
You got that so right!
Ok, the attention to detail not only with the dish but also the fact that Steven and Kiano are dressed in orange 🔥
I didnt even notice!
Such a great idea to expose him to a non-Asian style of rice! African rice is very similar to rice in latin america (likely not a coincidence), and I think it is surprising for people who have only ever eaten Asian style rice.
I need to follow this woman and learn more African foods! I love West African chicken stew and have been wanting more recipes!
completely agree with the comments about this season. i don't mind the guests but i wish it was more of a collaborative effort cooking wise. steven feels like a side piece when it's his own show! this ep especially didn't have the same vibe, again bringing guests is fine but when they're actually skilled and experienced with cooking it takes away the fun and drama out of it. i don't know the reason as to why it's changed maybe he thought it was a good idea but this is all compliments to steven because he's so fantastic, he doesn't need guests. he is the reason we watch. but if it's because it's a lot of effort and pressure on him, i hope he finds a middle ground where he still cooks but without the mental and physical stress.
Having a guest helping seems like a cool idea but Kiano was literally doing all the cooking.
She also felt kind of awkward in the interactions with uncle roger. Constantly undercutting his jokes.
@@Tuck93093 she probably just has a different sense of humor than him, which I think is understandable. I'm more concerned that when I watched this it felt like Kiano was the host. Like honestly you could take Steven out of this episode and it'd feel the same.
@@Tuck93093 eh, most of the jokes were "this isn't as good as Chinese food" and jabs at African culture. It's a bit and a character so no one is offended here but she's gonna naturally defend her dish lol
I’m just so proud the word Malaysia appeared so many times in such a good way (esp with recent news!) thanks to Uncle Roger, nephew Nigel, Steven and Kiano too! I would love to taste the dishes she makes, she’s so well seasoned!
The presentation ideas from Chef Eros were wonderful. He made a simple dish appear magical.
I really miss when Steven would just try to make the dishes himself... "Steven!" "Sorry, I was on my phone."
Found out in real time that Uncle Roger is just a bit and my world is shaken.
I know right! There’s so many plot twists this year.
I KNOW RIGHT!? i thought ALL asians talked like that!
...are you serious dude?
@@drunkbygreentea i dont think thats what they meant.
@@drunkbygreentea as an asian, we do not talk like tht
@@thuyazin6319 good to see a fellow burmese here. Thought no one knew what watcher is in my shithole country. Even if you r just here for uncle roger, stick around a little bit. Watcher has my fav creators and i want more local ppl to know about them.
didn't really like how kiano just sort of stepped in steven's limelight by taking over this episode. missing the greatness of s1 & 2
I love this marriage of cultures. Thank you for sharing a little bit of Nigerian food culture!
"People go too fancy on everything. Haiya. Just make it taste good."
GG Steven. See you next season.
Oh... my boi ain't even cooking the rice this episode.
He put it in the rice cooker at least!
as someone who's never seen uncle roger i was very surprised by how similar nigel and uncle roger looked at first
Same! 🤣
Wholesome content always ❤ always worth the wait!!
That is exactly the KNOCK I expect Uncle Roger would do, Startlingly LOUD
Why isn’t Steven cooking??? 😭 love the guests but I love watching Steven panic
THIS! The guests are amazing but seeing Steven panic while cooking is one of the best part of this series. I wish they go back to him cooking next season.
I also love to see his creativity and his problem solving. I thought the idea of Dish Granted also included Steven building up his cooking skills and learning new things in his efforts to make people a good meal. It feels to me in this season that that has gone away a bit.
Yeah.. feels like any other cooking show now with Steven just as the host
Kiano is such a favorite of mine, I was so excited to see her on the thumbnail. But I kinda miss seeing Steven do the work. Like it is nice to have guests helping or even guiding him, but doing all the cooking it's kinda... defeats the entire purpose of the show imo
I like that you have the camera guy (Tony) in the mix. Keeps the video feeling light and fun!
I love Kiano's calming presence and that meal looks delicious!
I miss just steven cooking by himself and overcoming adversity to make something really good that impressed even him
How come the main guy steven isnt cooking or coming up with the dish idea I loved before when he would brainstorm and combine the person's fave foods in one dish
Ronnie Chieng traumatized him. 😂
So much effort for the food aesthetic Kiano !! Love it
This is the first episode I have watched, and now, I'm a subscriber. I really like and appreciate the content. Thank you!!!
honestly while i do love the dish creation aspect that the new chefs lend to the series , i'd say the soul of dish granted is steven's creativity and willingnesss to make a dish thinking of his friends and the journey and struggle he overcomes in the creation is something really personal and enjoyable, this season with other is different but it's not the format i fell in love with on the pilot season
If I know Uncle Roger, we know the components of Egg Fried Rice: Egg, Fry and Rice.
and MSG
@@wwaxwork He didn’t mention it. Also, MSG is a given in everything.
@@PokhrajRoy. he explicitely mentioned MSG within the first 5mins of the ep my guy
@@crash-ry3eq I meant in the original video. My quote is not from this video.
Must use rice cooker and no vegetables too! :)
I really enjoyed watching Kiano cook! She's got such a firm, interesting personality and was mesmerizing
@@ar-sithf.austin3744 ugh. you got a problem with that also?
been a while since i've seen your videos Steven, sooooo sorry my friend. But I have been watching a lot of Uncle Roger lately and he's brought me back to you! Have a wonderful new year's my dude, keep making yummy yum yums for your peeps!
Judging from the whole season, I don't mind if another Dish Granted season takes months or even aired next year because Steven and team definitely needs a break to relief their mental stress. Making dish that you don't know especially dishes with specific flavor and technique is not something you can do in few hours or overnight, and honestly if I were him I will fail as well haha.
And it's okay to change the format from 24hours to 48hours to aleviate some stress and add room for more creativity in the dish.
Being completely honest, I really haven’t enjoyed this season as much as others. It just kinda loses the magic when Steven isn’t the one cooking idk
I love how incredibly gentle he is to you folks 😆 🤣 😂
I really love Nigerian fried rice and Uncle roger. I’m so happy to see our cultures intertwine through food ❤
It was nice seeing Nigerian and Ghana food! Thanks for introducing some people to Nigerian fried rice!!
Is it really supposed to be fried rice though? The ones i’ve had were all cooked in one pot with raw rice and never fried
I love how many times they had to cut away from Nigel breaking character
both of them were not ready for uncle roger's joke and insult
lol :)
But she started by saying she saw everything of him and was a fan. I mean... Could be for the awkward /funny reaction for the narrative but it just came across weird lol
need more episodes of this
Steven! We watch this show to watch you sweat! Guests should only advise and give hints.
Agreeeeee
I know that Dish Granted is featuring more guests to alleviate some of the stress if Steven were to cook alone but I really miss the charm of watching him fumble around and eventually figuring things out by the end. I'm okay with guests as Kiano was stunning and a delight to have in this episode as well as other guests we've already had, but I hope they don't take up too much of the screentime and just be there for guidance and assistance.
27:28 “Steven didn’t do shit” LMFAOOOOO he right tbh Steven couldn’t even watch the shrimp stock 🤣🤣🤣
I m halfway watching, i am already saving this recipe. Thanks chef!
I did think Uncle Roger was a little too harsh when it comes to cultural fried rice then I remembered, it's his persona, and Kiana said uncles all over the world actually behaved like that, makes me feel a little bit better. They do stick with their "superior" culture the most, don't they? :D
Was surprised that he liked it. Techincally they didn't even make the dish he asked for. When he says fried rice, he means traditional chinese fried rice. In essence, they did not prepare the dish he requested. It's like ordering a pizza and getting Lahmacun instead.
Must have tasted pretty good though, sure looked good.
Are you familiar with Uncle Roger? Harsh is his entire persona. They knew going into this how his character acts and exactly what was expected. She said she watched every episode of his show and was a fan meaning she (and everyone at Dish Granted) knew what they were in for. I was surprised he was quite reserved. You call it harsh, this was probably the most respectful I've seen him. It's an act and no one's feelings were actually hurt.
@@redshirt49 They wouldn't have had a chance making authentic fried rice to his liking so shifting cultures was there only option. This season did have a lot of "traditional, keep it simple" requests from quite a few guests. That seemed to make it hard to create fancy "dream" dishes for them because the show is about going way above and beyond but many people wanted very simple, just like home type dishes. It was an awkward season for sure.
@@barkergirl33 I agree. I'd say the first season felt 'grander' in the sense that they had so much more creativity because the expectations of the guests were to have a dream dish created, not 'create a dish that meets the standard I have in my brain'. Season 1 was all about fulfilling 'what if's', which is why creativity was much more front and center, Season 2 was all about 'can you make the best ______'. Totally different asks!
You said it: it definitely felt a bit awkward as a season --from the setup of Stephen not being fully around to the guests' requests. i guess it's also because Season 1 set the bar so high; I must've seen the whole season at least 3 times :))
@@veryclaro It's definitely a favorite of mine too. I feel bad critiquing this season because I adore Steven, Tony and the crew. If it was getting stressful for them I'd be thrilled with even a three episode season or a "Dish Granted Special". Fingers crossed it all works out in a way that is healthy and fun for everyone. :)
Reading the comments I agree that I miss Steven cooking. That was the heart of the show for me. I hope they go back to him cooking. I wouldn’t even mind a guest as a sous chef following stevens instruction
I usually enjoy guests or help on this show but I definitely missed Steven cooking this episode :/
Whoa, that's a LOT of different flavors to combine? I can't imagine the combination? I got some great ideas for my fried rice from this! It's usually what's ever in fridge that's usable. Happy I found you! I love to watch cooking vids and love to cook and bake! Mahalo and Aloha from Wailuku Maui!
Poor Steven; first Ricky now Kiano, everyone is taking his thunder these days lol
He didn’t really have much thunder he is definitely the weakest link and all here to see Shane and Ryan
@@Scarclaw Why do I get the feeling Steven is gunna do some witchy woo ju ju and bring back the Professor to spite Ryan
@@ConservativeKetchup Professor season 5 IS coming.
@@ThatBlackPiano Imma blame Steven for bringing The Professor back from the dead to torment Ryan lol
@@ConservativeKetchup lol
personally, love the existence of this dude. uncle roger's whole bit is being judgey and ignorant old asian man (the type many of us desis and asians grew up around) and so i dont get the point of being defensive to him or trying to educate him, because hes just a character doing a bit 😭. Nigel is a totally different guy who is so sweet and respectful. i feel like the uncle roger bit is just so all of yall can have a little experience of what we grew up with in asian countries lmao. the "everything came from asia" line killed me haha because THE NUMBER OF TIMES I HAVE HEARD THIS FROM MY FAMILY GROWING UP IS INSANE!,,, but thats the things right? we all KNOW that most of what he says is all exagerrated hooey. He just does his bit very well- so why not just have fun with it :3
just my little opinion, open to learning more from those who disagree
I used to follow the Rice to Meet You podcast he did with Evelyn. He has moments of cruelty
@@LindaC616 Its funnnnnnnny so your answer just 50/50 correct.
Yes I totally agree, I think it is also a difference in Western vs Eastern sense of humor. Americans in particular don't seem to understand irony or dry humor as well.
I totally agree. Usually when people do a collab with him they just set him up to complement his character and I am pretty sure these people should have been aware that Uncle Roger will behave for the content. So its abit iffy when Kiano says she is a 'big fan' but she got defensive and offended in the process.
I see alot of offended people who don't know that Uncle Roger is a character. A very, very exaggerated character who is offensive and rude but it's all in good fun. I like that Nigel created the character because of pandemic lock downs. He obviously couldn't do stand up and needed something to stand out on CZcams in order to get the views. Uncle Roger became an unexpected but welcome icon.
kiano can get me thru the most stressful times, legit zen of a human.
also why am i attracted to uncle roger
This episode was so great! I too miss the Steven chaos but I also do love Kiano and her calm, confident expertise. Also, Chef Eros was only in the video for a little over 2 minutes but he was so funny like giving expert gourmet decoration help while not caring how gigantic the prawn was, then just going "ok bye" taking the fried rice with him lmao. Props too to Uncle Roger for criticizing Steven for buying expensive slippers even though it was a gift for him and then not giving Steven a star for not cooking 😂(and I don't think he was being harsh about the food at all since they knew it was a bit that he'd prefer traditional Chinese egg fried rice but he still gave a 8/10 despite that)
Kiano's voice is so soothing
This was thr comment I was looking for and I'm surprised I don't see more. I love her voice.
@2:25 Uncle roger says he only care about flavor and not appearence, but he had a lot to say about the appearance of a sauce a cowboy put on fried rice. 🤣 Hiyaaaa 🤦🏿♀️
Wonderful, thank you!
Kiano is so smart and gorgeous- she gives all the good vibes
It’s weird and wonderful to finally see a guest that is very chill and confident while cooking ON DISH GRANTED.
I’m at the shrimp stock part and already know uncle roger’s gonna love this
THANK YOU FOR SHARING❤. Uncle Roger is so hilarious 😂Good vlog.
you're telling me a steven fried this rice? (jokes aside i always look forward to new episodes of this i can't wait to watch)
I LOVE KIANO. Honestly this EP was sooo goood, the power and expertise that kiano holds its just amazing. Her confidence makes her presence as a chef shine on her own. She is a great hostess that makes you feel right at home while learning too. I also liked how steven was on the sides making dad jokes. It feels like him passing the baton on a really sweet way, like slowly pulling out as kiano pushes in and its just beautiful the showcase of african cuisine. Imagine Kiano hosting a show about african cuisine, it would be marvelous. This EP represents for me what steven said he was setting up to do when Watcher started, inclusivity, room for new talent, and showing it so masterfully for us with his willingness to delegate. Bravo. love u kiano and all your outfits
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the episode :)
@@kianom Hi aww, thank YOU for sharing West African culture with the watcher audience. (perhaps I will make your fired rice soon) :)
She's not a chef. She's a home cook.
@@spankbuda5760so??
@Kiano- Thanks for representing West Africa and more specifically, Nigeria 🇳🇬. I love it! Omo 9ja.
I enjoyed this episode soooo much!
“can you show us how to do a line of msg?”
“yes get me credit card, come”
i’m DEAD
Saffron and spam fried rice is such a Watcher creation lmao I adore this channel
Uncle Roger's point of view towards fried rice is what my family held so much lol. Whenever we went to a new hotel, we always tasted the fried rice first. Because if it tastes good, then we don't need to worry about the other foods.
As someone who’s part Cantonese (southern chinese) & also vegetarian, the only thing I can have in my fried rice is veggies 🥲😂
@stevenlim. This was a nice season - *BUT I really miss* your original concept. Just you cooking with some chit-chat with with the camera operator & just your natural progression. Its the best! By the time this last video of the season posted - its like you were barely there. We miss you. 🤗
