Haven't heard of it. What channel, what day - what time? PBS?

Food is an important part of a balanced diet.

Can't stand her voice. I always switch channels when she is on. Plus I
never liked south of the border food.

It's on Create. I watch it in the evenings or maybe late nights? Not sure.
I only seem to catch it sporadically.

I love South of the border food. Just not her voice.

Have you ever *had* south of the border food? I'd really like to see a
menu from one of these Mexican restaurants you like so much.

Yes -- it drives us crazy as well. We just can't watch the show because
of that.

We're seeing her live on March 19th as guest chef at the National Press
Club restaurant, which should be interesting.

(For someone else: in the US, Cooking Channel, on cable, at various times.)

I watch it on PBS in St. Louis; whether it is available in your
community, and what day/time - check local listings. However, you don't
have to be able to watch the show to hear her voice; check out the
Season One clip near the bottom of:

Okay. Here is the one where we normally eat at.

http://ixtapalynnwood.net/

However, we rarely order from the menu. They usually make food that is
special for us.

This is where we used to eat frequently. They're still good. We just are
rarely in this area and in need of a meal.

http://yucatanrestaurantandbar.com/

We have eaten here occasionally.

http://plazagarcia.com/

We ate here on Christmas Eve.

http://www.allmenus.com/wa/edmonds/5...l-puerto/menu/

This place probably has the best food but it's in an old Taco Bell so the
eating area is very small. They do have an excellent condiment bar.

http://www.taqueriaelantojo.com/

This place has good food too but only a very few tables.

Live! Oh wow. I would have a hard time keeping a straight face.

Thanks, her voice didn't bother me. I don't mind the high pitch. I
think the problem is that she's speaking through a heavy accent and
over enunciating words.

That's two strikes. I like South of the Boarder best. Which
nonAmerican food do you like?

Thanks, I'll look - but I pretty much only watch what I stumble upon
at the time. Very little is appt TV for me anymore.

The theme music bothers me more than her voice in that clip. I run into
that in Mexican restaurants. Mexican "Muzak". I'd sure hate to get
stuck in an elevator in Mexico.

Of course. Thanks for the links.

You hit the nail on the head. The tone of her voice is a little
annoying, but it is her accent and over enunciating her words that takes
it over the top. Her sister was on the show and I do not recall her
voice being that annoying.

The owner is very good with food issues. He is on a special diet himself.
I won't bother to get into that here. He basically told us... Tell me what
you can eat and I will fix it for you. It never disappoints.
