I never got to meet the Frug but I did get a nice note from Ming Tsai once after I sent him a copy of The Hungover Gourmet newsletter.<BR/><BR/>As for Emeril, my wife and I always joke about how if you put a stick of butter and cup of heavy cream in each dish it'd be hard for them NOT to taste great!Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07527634771122333837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266616.post-36899521707573440922007-09-19T12:41:00.000-04:002007-09-19T12:41:00.000-04:00I love the Frugal Gourmet!

He is too much fun, and comes across the screen as a genuine, sincere person.<BR/><BR/>I completely agree with you on the pompousness of some of the chefs on FoodTV. I no longer watch it, unless I'm at my mom's house... and I'll quickly give it up for Victory Garden. <BR/><BR/>I got sick of Emeril when I realized that just about everything he cooks isn't home-kitchen friendly, unless you live in a major metropolitan area, have the entire contents of a Williams-Sonoma store in your pantry, unlimited cash flow, an albino Muscovy duck, and a kitchen cleaning crew at your disposal. The band says it all. If you do not have a band in your kitchen, chances are, you're not going to have everything you need to make one of his recipes. Should you have a band in your kitchen, you'll likely suffer the complete blockage of one coronary artery or another due to the amount of saturated fat in the dish. You might as well just inject Crisco into your vein; it'd probably be healthier. <BR/><BR/>I like your blogs :)Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14295261027750447876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266616.post-38286611237651425712007-09-14T18:12:00.000-04:002007-09-14T18:12:00.000-04:00What a great idea...

I still have it, though the cover is gone and it's stained beyond belief.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07527634771122333837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13266616.post-78867257528919688122007-09-14T18:05:00.000-04:002007-09-14T18:05:00.000-04:00I must catch Just Watch This. As for Jeff Smith: ...I must catch <I>Just Watch This</I>. As for Jeff Smith: I do miss him. When I was a kid sitting on my grandmother's bed watching PBS every Sunday afternoon, I used to try and scribble down his recipes as feverishly as possible. Didn't work. While I do have a higher tolerance for some of those Food Network personalities, I do wish somebody would start a classic cooking show network - all Frugal Gourmet - French Chef - Galloping Gourmet all the time!Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064972052546768332noreply@blogger.com
