http://seek.co.nz/job/general-manager-food-entertainment-centre/auckland/17980029/91/1/

so if skytv have enough cash to do this why don't they get some more tv channels first?

Will the food be in HD 16:9, or delivered in SD letterboxed on a small plate?

I'm not 100% certain but I believe Sky only own a small stake in the company that produce Food TV and the Living Channel.

So sky own part of living channel, and claim they cant fis that abortion of useless 14:9 letterbox crap they put out? Great...

IMO in this era when you cant even buy a non widescreen tv mangling content to fit the minority is not acceptable.

Sort your content out before you open a resturant sky. Dont need HD but I would like to see things in the right aspect without bits missing when I am at mums and watching whatever chaff you are serving up on tv.

I'm apparently wrong entirely. I've since been told Sky have no financial interest at all in the company.
