Marked this for recording immediately, I was really looking forward to seeing a busy, popular Chinese kitchen..sadly the manufactured and scripted drama overtook the believability of a food program. Food Network, please go back to being about what made you watchable. You really don't need writers and a plot to make your programming interesting! Competition is always good and talented chefs sharing their recipes and philosophy about how to create and run a kitchen are far more important than some poorly performed storyline that is completely unnecessary in order to create viewership . Have some faith in what brought Food Network to popularity.
