Yan Can Cook is a Chinese oriented
cookbooks which serve as companions to these various television series.[1]
Presentation style
Chef Yan's style of presentation was infused with (and today continues to feature) humor; during this program's original run he became known for his main catchphrase, "If Yan can cook, so can you, zai jian (goodbye in Mandarin Chinese)/zoi gin(goodbye in Cantonese)!", with which he signed off on each show. He used a second catchphrase, "Something fishy here! [sic]", used whenever he cooked seafood.[3] One of his other trademarks was to chop food frantically with a sharp cleaver while grinning towards the camera. This show is shot on stage.
