I love Spencer's recipes and menus. Cannot realistically be created in 30 minutes unless you are prepped, but the ideas are great. HOWEVER, he OFTEN licks his fingers, and then touches the food that is supposed to be serving his "guests". This is a big turn off. This is also the reason people get nervous at potlucks. Gross!

Spencer Watts is the BEST Chef. He creates the most DELICIOUS ,QUICK to PREPARE recipes to feed the fam, He is fun to watch, endearing, sweet, organized and creative. He has so many kitchen hacks that cut time and deliver incredibly delicious food in under 30 minutes that picky eaters love. His recipe preparation organization, schedule and timing are gold in a busy life. Also Spencer is incredibly cheerful. Who doesn't need cheerful in their lives? Thank you Chef Spencer for helping all of the busy folks who need to get dinner on the table.You are a lifesaver! You are a just what's needed now. I appreciate your show and YOU and your happiness so much.You make the world a better place with your big bright shining light. Thank you.

Spencer makes the recipes easy to follow. All the recipes that I have tried have been outstanding.

I am seeing a white guy teach Japanese cooking and I'm thinking wasn't there a white yoga teacher in Ottawa who got fired for teaching an Indian practice? Shouldn't this guy get fired too? This is cultural appropriation. I don't even eat Japanese food anymore because it is just not right. I tried to contact ctv who is running it where I live but of course they don't want to hear from their audience. People of Japan, I urge you to stand up to the theft of your art and boycott this show or especially all of ctv until the white man gets replaced by the appropriate person to show the food and those who are not Asian should watch respectfully but never taste the food.

My big down vote for this is promoting a dinner for 30 bucks. Unless he's marketing towards D I N K households or other celebs who don't care about budgeting. Almost a grand per dinner per month? That doesn't even factor in lunch or breakfast dude. Also 30 minutes is completely off. No matter what the intro says about no tricks etc. You don't make a full Thai or other dinner in 30 minutes or less from start to finish. I cook Thai at home at least once a week. All these ethnic episodes are ingredient heavy and he's def not doing this in 30 minutes without organizing his ingredients first. I cook for a living and I'm all about efficiency and budgeting at home. Go ahead and promote cooking more exotic things like Thai and Lebanese at home. I'm all for that. I think people need to get more creative in the kitchen but don't be promoting this to the average household as achievable. (unless those 4 people you're cooking for are all in the kitchen helping). Also lasagna for 30 bucks? I guarantee you I can do lasagna for way less than 30 bucks.
