 Good in Concept but not very Practical January 8, 2009
Bex m (Bedfordshire)
I got this for Christmas from my Mum and Dad as I love cooking and I asked for it as I thought it would be a great fun using it.
It is full of some great recipes, which you can search for by country, how easy, whats in it and keyword and it talks you through them all, but both me and my mum found it had great difficulty recognising our voices when we said "continue", it seemed to think we said anything but. We ended up speaking in really deep voices which our men found hillarious.
Typically it understood them first time!
Another problem I found was when using it in the kitchen it picked up every little noise. It told me to chop the onions and when the knife hit the chopping board it would say "sorry I didn't catch that" or worse continue to the next step. It wasn't like I had it right next to me either.
So in my opinion I would recommend it for the recipes and search functionality, but its practical use in the kitchen is pretty useless!

i thought this would really help me get back into cooking, i was wrong. i found a lot of the ingredients hard to get hold of, the voice activation is too sensitive and if u dont use that u get a very messy ds. all in all i found it a great disapointment, and wish i had bought the jamie oliver one instead.

This product is completley useless, it advertises an easy way to cook that is quick and convienient. The recipes are rediculous if you were to try an cook one of these dishes at the last minute you would be stumped as there is no way you would have the ingredients in they have no common recipes, ie, Bolognese or enchiladas, and the only english they have is (wait for it) curry, now i'm sorry but when has curry been a british dish, I bought this to help out with some basic recipes ideas for spices and an difference in cooking however to find all the ingredients is impossible and the dishes are un heard of, I expected to be able to recreate meals id enjoyed in restaurants not possible!
 I loved this game December 29, 2008

This is the best recipe game it gives you a step by step idiot proof guide how to make all the recipes. you can choose by country which I thought was genuis. I recommend this to people who have never cooked but are keen to learn as it is so easy to follow or if you just want new recipes.

I have to say that I was quite pleased with the "game." I like how it takes you step through step of each thing that you need to do, and it can easily by adjusted for 2 - 4 people.
I am dissapointed with the voice recognition. It picks up every possible sound that there is and the game gets all confused, and when you do say "continue" it just ignores you. So that is an issue, it would be better if there was some kind of pause button or to turn of the voice recognision.
