That’s right… I was in the front row for a taping of Emeril Live today… kicking it up a notch and all that jazz… it was a blast!
It’s quite a slick production, truly done in real time… and Big E is a pro, with great comic timing and an amazing connection with his audience… young, old, a real melting pot of ethnic backgrounds, all sat rapt, breaking into applause whenever he added garlic! Yeah. Or poured in a generous splash of something boozy.
I’m going to write more for the food section… and more about all the great food I’ve been eating, but I’m running out to the James Beard Awards… featuring some of New Orleans best chefs.

I am so jealous. We have watched Emril for many years. Actually, before he was a household name. At that time, my daughter was very young and she always refered to him as the “Cookin’ Man”. Do you know when the episode will be aired? Let us know…

I almost always tune in to watch Emeril, even when it’s a rerun. He is entertaining as well as charming, altho some of the other chefs tend to dis him unmercifully. I saw on the Paula Deen Magazine Newsletter that her two cutie-pie sons, Jamie & Bobby, are going to have their own Food TV show beginning in July. They are already very much at home in front of the camera. Their show will be the travel type, searching for family favorite foods around the country. Should be a winner!
