America's Test Kitchen vs Christopher Kimball's Milk Street Kitchen
>>21689142who names their street "milk"
my mom's got subscriptions to both and I like them both :)america's test kitchen's show has been pretty trash since chris left, but their recipes are still solid and their equipment and taste tests are second to nonemilk street's show was much better for a while, but then chris had a latelife crisis and wanted to make sure people knew he was actually capable of cooking, and the show has been worse for it ever since. I die inside every time that dogshit twee music plays. their recipes are also solid thoughamerica's test kitchen is better for getting an extremely solid version of your standard recipes, while milk street is more for exposing you to less popular dishes or using specialized ingredients in interesting waysyou go to america's test kitchen for homemade tater tot hotdish, you go to milk street for them telling you to add some miso to your caramel

>>21689190Chris was the worst part of the show
>>21689222well america's test kitchen and cook's country both got significantly worse after he left. every interaction feels incredibly fake and forced, compared to the mostly organic chemistry they had with chris, even if at times it felt like their banter was backed by some genuine anger towards him. bridget and julia feel so off now, like they're reading from a scriptit's like they're trying to be sandra lee or ree drummond, when that's just not how they are, and it fucking sucks. and god, the black lady they got to do the history parts of cook's country is the fucking worst. what a fucking snoozefest
>>21689142Can¡t watch first so I'm with second.
America's Shit Lickin
>>21689142For me it's Bon Appetit's Street Eats with Lucas Sin and Eric Sze
>>21689220The aquarium is at the other end of milk street. Used to go by the PBS offices when I was dating this woman in boston. Humorously enough, its about a mile where the real bad drug addicts stand on the side of the road and kinda shake and bend and lean
>>21689142ATK would be a worse show if Chris hadn't gotten fired for cheating on his wife with the camera woman. Its also good that it seems like its part of Chris's new contract that he can't be a massive pussy regarding spice, that he isn't allowed to talk about his time in France and has to stop trying to compare his couple years there to every food in the world.Milk Street as a concept compliments the other two shows since ATK focuses on rigorous testing, CC focuses on American food, and MS focuses on foods from other countries.
