New Everyday Exotic Episodes tonight on Food Network Canada!!! | September 7 2010
Its been a long time coming but finally new episodes of Everyday Exotic start tonight in Canada exclusively on Food Network Canada, as usual.
What is different this season from the previous episodes you have seen in the past? Aside from some very subtle but effective things that only the true EE nerds will catch; we have shifted some of the lighting so that it feels brighter and more vibrant. Hopefully, you will find the more seasoned host equally as bright and vibrant this year; thats me.
Well, over the last few years I have logged a fair amount of travel hours and have brought all of these experiences to the new episodes. Stuff from Malaysia, Korea, Singapore, Mexico, New York and the Caribbean have made the cut. The recipes continue along the same theme with a renewed conscious effort to start some more stuff from scratch and show some goodies like making Pizza dough from scratch, or Pasta from scratch, or how to really hook up some Chicken Wings with a Malaysian inspiration.
There are lots of goodies but I cant give it all away so you will have to watch out for more as the episodes unfold.

California Love | September 6 2010
The LA Times Celebration of Food and Wine was crazy. Thousands of peeps came through, more food trucks than parking spots, loads of vendors, so many flavors, styles and types of food and wine. The highlight was the cooking demonstration stage, it was on some Lollapalooza type ish. This pic was taken before the demo. The Cooking Channel Ice Cream Truck was just off the the right of the stage. Lineups were crazy this weekend. And later on in the night a band played, ummm...who do I talk to next year about playing this show with my band. Hmmm...

Taste Of Beverly Hills | September 4 2010
Woah. I havent seen so much security at a food festival in my life. It was like Toronto during the G20 up in there. What a little bit of Beverly Hills $$ will get ya no doubt. I have a sneaky suspicion that the swap meet in South Central isnt so well guarded. Anyhow.
The event was crazy though. Lots of food, lots of wine and spirits, 3 different demonstration stages, a music stage, red carpet entrance, cars on promo display, crazy giveaways, loads of press covering the event and most importantly Cooking Channel Ice Cream Truck. This weekend we partnered up with Carmela Ice Cream and the hooked up some Salted Caramel and Lavender Honey Ice Cream. Of course it was a hit. No doubt.
After almost puking from nausea all morning they got me some Coconut water, a bagel and slowly I started diving into some food that seemed to clear up the dizzyness and nausea. After that it was full court press. We banged out a lot of good video for the Cooking Channel blog, did a load of interviews in a very short time and met a whole bunch of new Cooking Channel and Everyday Exotic fans. Always nice to meet the peeps who are devoted to watching the Channel. Madd love back at ya.
This pic shows some of my highlights from todays show. Jamon Iberico, Fresh Pasta by Terroni, Peach Water, and of course the TOBH napkins. Always love napkins with logos.
Tomorrow is LA Times event which promises to be even bigger. Look out for more.
