I was reading about this new show starting on Virgin 1 on Sept 24th called 'Restaurant In Our living Room' which looks really interesting.

The gist is that couples go head to head each week, transforming their own homes into fully functioning restaurants on strict budgets!

Apparently it is inspired by the new phenomenon of underground 'pop up' restaurants being set up by foodies fed up of paying over the odds in overpriced and overhyped restaurants.

There's a bit more info here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Restaurant-In-Our-Living-Room/129468470689 - there's also some handy tips and recipes for beating the credit crunch too.

Anyone else heard much about this?

Great link, thanks Suezx - I see there are already some pop ups registered on there, will have to see about trying one out sometime!

Looking forward to ep2 tonight - have you seen that they have put the recipes from last week's show up on the facebook?

Thinking of trying some of these out this weekend, I particularly like the look of the Limoncello parfait, and I have loads of it to use up that I brought back from my holiday in Greece last year!
