Economy Gastronomy

Episode 2 - The Coltons (1x2)

Data di messa in onda: Ago 12, 2009

Simon and Isobel Colton are hard-working parents with three kids aged ten, eight and seven. Simon's business is feeling the pinch and he's not only had to make 17 people redundant, but is also selling the car and the family are downsizing - that's if they can sell the house. They're spending hundreds of pounds a week on food and need to economise. Also, Isobel has fallen out of love with her kitchen and is cooking the same meal several times a week. Will the family ever get something different from grilled chicken with boiled rice? Will the family stick to the Economy Gastronomy plan, reduce their food bills and cook every meal for a week from scratch? And how will Simon and Isobel cope when they're challenged to cook a three-course meal for six people against the clock using only the principles of Economy Gastronomy and only 10 pounds extra for ingredients?
