I’m a winner! Long overdue news and a giveaway

Jerry — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 21:28:43 +0000

You may remember that just before I left Texas, I was asked for the second time to participate in a recipe spotlight in partnership with the Texas Beef Council. the council had approached me in the past and I’ve always been happy to help them out with these events.

Since we already knew my wife was destined for Turkey, I thought that the Moroccan Style Beef Kabob … [visit site to read more]

Jerry — Mon, 04 May 2009 13:17:45 +0000

Harlequin Romance celebrated it’s 60th anniversary recently. That alone wouldn’t get me to comment here, but when they decided to have a group of celebrities reading blurbs from past best sellers… AND … One of those celebrities happens to be the world renown chef Wolfgang Puck, then it gets my attention.

In his brief appearance in the ABC video celebrating not only the Canadian based Harlequin, but the fact that the romance industry is actually flourishing in the currently depressed … [visit site to read more]

Should Gordon Ramsay really behave more like Escoffier?

Jerry — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 14:14:43 +0000

Egon Ronay suggests that Gordon Ramsay should behave more like Escoffier, the celebrated chef who penned Le Guide Culinaire. Unfortunately, there seems to be some areas he forgot o address:

In a letter today to the Guardian Egon Ronay compares Gordon Ramsay unfavourably to César Ritz (1850-1918), the best-known inn-keeper in history and Auguste … [visit site to read more]

Jerry — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 01:45:02 +0000

Think you have to avoid fast food restaurants if you’re trying to lose weight? Adam Clatsoff would disagree with you, he lost 100 pounds eating at fast food chains.

Celebrity chef rants in front of Spanish royalty – Telegraph

Jerry — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 22:47:53 +0000

Mario Batali has just placed himself in good company with Gordon Ramsay. In fact, he’s just done something I’m pretty sure that Ramsay himself would never do. He subjected the King and Queen of Spain to a series of profane outbursts at a dinner held in their honor in Florida during the south Beach Food and Wine Festival.

Batali is said to have appeared intoxicated and lost his temper when the crowd at the $1,000 per plate dinner didn’t wuiet down quickly enough. After a moment he … [visit site to read more]

Top chef or product spokesman?

Jerry — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 22:21:03 +0000

It seems Top Chef judge Tom Colicchio has been bitten by the product placement bug, or perhaps he’s just come to find it normal after having to find creative ways to pitch products in segments on Top Chef. (A Dr. Pepper Challenge?)

Colicchio is now appearing in a TV ad for Diet Coke that emphasizes a need to “keep it simple”. having seen tom on Top chef, even that statement sounds a little strained. The commercial does very little to inspire me to buy any soda, but it is shot somewhat … [visit site to read more]

Jerry — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 01:59:50 +0000

I found this article in one of my notifications. I have to say that I think it says a lot about chef Ramsay.

London, February 22 (ANI): Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has hired a nine-year-old to be a part of his show after being impressed with the lad’s hilarious mimicking of him on cyberspace.

Child-actor Felix Light had done three videos in a “Little Gordon” advertising … [visit site to read more]
