The Cooks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cooks was an Australian television drama series that ran for one season on Network Ten in 2005. It was a co-production with subscription television and screened on the UKTV channel on Foxtel. It was produced by Penny Chapman and Sue Masters. The directors were Tony Tilse, Ian Gilmour, Brendan Maher and Ian Watson.

The Cooks was about the love and war involving the staff of two restaurants in the same street. R&R's Restaurant was run by chefs Rita and Ruth, with waitress Argentine Carmelita. Across the road at Snatch and Grab, it's chefs are Gabe and Indian Sachin with Dishpig at the sink. The Cooks mixed great food, sexual energy, drama and laughs, to perfection.

The Cooks was a spin-off from a telemovie called Temptation which screened in 2003, starring Colin Friels as Roberto Francobelli.
