Good news for food fans with confirmation a second season of SBS’s cooking program Poh & Co is now in production
“I’m back! And I have so much more to share,” says cook and visual artist Poh Ling Yeow. “It’s all about playing shop this time around as our market stall Jamface continues to boom and I get busy fitting out my own commercial kitchen. I also look into some super creative outdoor art projects, and of course, I have a mountain of delicious food and recipes ready to go. So join me in the burbs of Adelaide for a whole new set of adventures.”
Poh & Co. season two has begun filming hot on the back of the successful first season. Poh & Co. was SBS’s highest rating food program in 2015 year-to-date for total individuals with a combined (metro + regional) average audience of 443,000. In metro areas, it had the highest free-to-air share (8.2%) for any non-reality food program of 2015 year-to-date.
In season one, Poh and her family and friends set up a market stall, built an edible garden and invented the world’s first fridge tattoo! A year on, Poh returns to take audiences even deeper into her chaotic, complicated and wonderfully creative world. Poh is taking her humble stall from a single tent at the back corner of Adelaide’s Farmers’ Markets to a catering “megatent” five times the size of the original. This growth drives Poh, hubby Jono and business partners’ Sara and Matt to learn a host of new skills to navigate their complex busy lives. To cope with the pressures, Poh bakes, paints and hangs out with her dogs, Rhino and Tim.
Poh & Co. series two sees Poh transform from domestic dreamer to suburban success story. Every episode will be jam-packed with sumptuous dishes from Poh’s own baking repertoire along with delicious Asian classics and a few secret family recipes.
