The cooking show was almost ready to start. The crowd of people were seated in front of the raised cooking area. Carmen spoke to them for ten minutes until it was time to start the actual show. This was called ‘warming up the audience.’ It was good to see that all the seats were filled this afternoon.<br /><br />She walked over the set to make sure everything that was needed was in order. Looking over the pots and pans and utensils was part of her job. Soon, the chef, Gourmet George, would rush out on stage after she introduced him. As usual, the audience would respond to the applause sign and the famous cooking show would begin. It would be saved on video and televised next week.<br /><br /><a href=’http://www.knifesetstore.com’>Knife sets</a> sat ready on the front counter. It was black granite and the silver of the knives shone against its gleam. Today Gourmet George was trying a new dish similar to duck l’orange. He would use chicken instead of the duck, a fowl he considered greasy. He would need multiple knives to use in preparation. His expertise with chicken was extraordinary. She wondered if she would lunch with him after the show.<br /><br />A second <a href=’http://www.knifesetstore.com’>kitchen knife set</a> was on the counter behind the chef. If he needed two of the same size, this would insure that one was always available. It was too difficult to stop and wash a knife or anything else during the show. They had two of everything handy. Neither he or Carmen would run out of knives or kettles. The employee who cleaned up after the show washed two of everything. However, she got a tasty meal too.<br /><br />She gave everyone a broad smile and told them how happy they were to have them there. Places everyone she announced to the crew. Next she announced that Gourmet George was on his way out. He came out on stage and smiled as he waved at the spectators. He told them he was glad they were there.<br /><br />Everyone applauded as expected. She greeted him and they said a few friendly words to each other. He announced what dish he would prepare and the crowd clapped loudly. Carmen stood by, ready to help in any way she could.<br /><br />She moved the <a href=’http://www.knifesetstore.com’>wusthof knife set</a> closer to herself so she could reach the size she needed easily. It would not do to come between the chef and the camera lens at any time during the show. As on any good cooking program, they already had one completed dish baking in the oven, ready to show the audience how it looked after preparation and cooking. The air smelled of chicken and bacon already. It looked like it would be a good show.
