When I was growing up there was the Galloping Goumet and Julia Child. Other guys were watching Combat and I was watching cooking shows. Then came Justin Wilson and Pierre Franey and that strange frugal gourmet guy Jeff Smith. Now there is the food network and also Create network. My wife records Lidia Bastanich every day so we can watch it at night. Rachel Ray has become her own corporation. Bobby Flay took Southwest to another dimension and and we all watched as the that chef lost his business in the reality show. The list is endless.
The weekend is starting and half the country is going to try a recipe they got from Jaques Pepin or Mariane Esposito. So tell me please, who is your favorite celebrity chef and why?


And this!

Quote:

Some have criticized Ray's "perky" demeanor as well as her lack of a formal chef's education and perceived lack of seriousness about cooking. Celebrity chef and Travel Channel personality Anthony Bourdain, who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America, has referred to her as a "bobblehead".


I like Anthony Bourdain too, and even more after reading that!

I am sure he will get "half" 8) I like Giatta and she has some really great recipes... Rachel is annoying and she thinks she is funny or cute and she is so not. We watch alot of Iron Chef. I like to watch the challanges and there are some really interesting combinations...I do like to watch when Mario Batalli is on as the Iron Chef. He can be personable.
