If you've got a high-definition television and you gobble up food shows, don't miss two new programs on the eclectic MOJO channel (HD1561 on Oceanic Time Warner Cable). New York uber-chef Daniel Bouloud hosts his chef friends and celebs for late-night, after-service dinners on "After Hours" (6 and 9 p.m. Sundays). On the premiere, chef Eric Ripert of New York's fabled Le Bernardin, wowed the crowd with a French-style paella on a pan the size of a tabletop. Right after Boulud's show is "Pressure Cook" with Ralph Pagano ("Hell's Kitchen"), right. The show drops Pagano into a location with no money and he has to use his chef skills to learn the local cuisine and earn airfare home. This week: Iceland.
