Just in time for holiday gift giving, our shopping cart got a case of the flu or something. There have been a few scattered hours from Dec. 13 - 17 when you may have had trouble placing an order from the AltonShop. If you have any concerns about an order delivery that needs to be made before Dec. 24, please send an email to abadmin@fullpond.com.

Iron Chef America: Supreme Cuisine

Now, finally, after years of anticipation, I can compete on Iron Chef America.

Well, not exactly. But I can finally go up against the likes of Mario Batali, Cat Cora and Masaharu Morimoto on my Wii console. That's right food fans, Iron Chef is coming to a Wii near you and if your slicin', dicin', stirin', measurin', whiskin', and general cooking skills are up to snuff, you may just walk away a champion. But even if you fail to convince the judges of your brilliance you'll have hours of culinary fun with me and the gang, not to mention a cadre of brand new iron chefs, each with their own specialties. Allez cuisine indeed.

Both Wii and DS versions are in stores/online now.
