Ice Cream Truck Strikes Again...AC | August 1 2010
Check out the lineup at the Cooking Channel Ice Cream Truck yesterday. 6000 servings of Ice Cream. Thats a lot of love being spread. Thanks to Springers Ice Cream and of course the whole crew at the truck. Met a lot of fans, took a lot of pictures and there is madd video blogs that will be showing up soon enough. Look out.
Atlantic City Boardwalk | August 1 2010
This city has the most amazing boardwalk. On one side is the beach and on the other Casino row and madd shops and food stalls. All along there are these guys pushing 3 seater trolleys, the call them Taxis, with canopy's to block the sun. I had to ride it, this is the view from the Taxi on the boardwalk on a beautiful day. Ahhh...
Cooking School | August 1 2010
Yesterday I did a demo at Harrahs new cooking school kitchen. It is an amazing kitchen setup for doing intimate events and cooking classes. I was very proud to be a part of the events at the Atlantic City Food and Wine Festival this weekend in AC. On the menu - Stuffed Calamar, Spicy Watermelon shooter, Corn and Chorizo Akras with 2 sauces, Cilantro drizzled Shrimp, and... You had to be there, look out for more demonstrations and announcements. Such a tease.
What A Good Meal! | July 31 2010
Last night was pretty crazy. The Food Network Atlantic City Food and Wine Festival basically gives us the key to the city here. As far as I can tell, you can get away with almost anything in this city as it is, but as hosts of our own shows there is an extra layer of madness allowed. Anywhere we wanna go, anything we wanna do, at any time is laid out before us. It is a pretty mad license in the wrong hands but fortunately I haven't met another host who is the type to really take advantage of it in a bad way. Well maybe a couple, I wont name names. hehehehehe.
The boardwalk here is pretty madd. Casino hotels on one side and the beach on the other. Debauchery and peace in juxtaposition, its something for everyone. Madd people walking the boardwalk all night and a crazy party at one of the beach bars last night. The DJ was killing it, guys rolling cigars by hand to order, whiskey galore, as much drink as anyones liver can handle, servers in bikinis, madd food, loads of food celebrities, and lots of fans around stopping us to take pictures. To give you an idea; the runner up Quote Of The Day was a woman stumbling very slowly up to the bar and saying "I can STILL walk in these heels, until Im on my knees Im not stopping." I wasnt sure how to take that one, read into that however you like.
The highlight of the night for me, of course, was dinner. The Borgata Hotel here has the bomb restaurants. It was all about Izakaya in the Borgata. The food was out of control. Duck Buns, Makis, Crispy Spicy Tuna, Tempura Lobster Lettuce Cups, Grilled Kobe and Japanese Mustard. Everything was so damn delicious I licked my fingers down to the knuckle. More importantly, the company was great, we had madd jokes and spent a good amount of time laughing our asses off.
Walking in the restaurant this picture was on the wall.
