How is that different from the past? When did it drop off? How much longer can you stay open if nothing changes? Have you ever been charged or convicted of any crimes, including a misdemeanor or a felony? Do you have any pre-existing contracts that may affect your ability to participate in this show? If YES, did you enter into any contracts prior to participation?
Please explain:. Approximately three minutes. Have you already spoken to someone on our casting team? If you selected YES, please explain. What is your position at the restaurant? Owners Name s , phone number and email address. Restaurant Website. Do you have a parking lot - if so, how many spaces? Street parking only? There are only a few names that carry the same kind of weight as Wolfgang Puck , and that's why Los Angeles Times reporter David Lazarus thought it was strange that according to the Better Business Bureau, his Spago restaurant only warranted a B-.
There were no complaints, no scandals, but still, that less-than-perfect grade was there. That sent Lazarus searching through the BBB database, and found there were a ton of other, less high-profile examples of businesses with no complaints who still had imperfect scores. That made him wonder if there was some kind of pay-to-play system in place. That goes against everything the BBB supposedly stood for, and proved that ratings aren't everything.
Alton Brown's not an easy guy to figure out. On the one hand, he seems to want to come across as a man of the people, explaining cooking in terms just about anyone could understand. On the other hand, he cultivates a persona that he describes as " evilicious ," and has been known to make insensitive remarks about not only his fellow chefs but also some of his fans, particularly those in the plus-sized contingent.
On one occasion, Alton, speaking in front of an Iowa audience, did anything but wow the crowd according to one blogger — in fact, he left many of them speechless, not knowing what to make of remarks that came across as racist a reference to a "real live Negro" and homophobic a crack about a girl in the audience having "two daddies". He then went on to compound his insensitivity by delivering a big ol' slap in the face to everyone who works in the restaurant industry, bragging about a time he bullied a North Carolina restaurant into making an item not on the menu by threatening to come back into the kitchen.
News of his comments don't seem to have made it to major news sites, but it did make waves on blogs , social networks , and forums where word spreads fast. Paula Deen isn't the only one in the family prone to jumping feet-first into controversy. You'd think the Deens would have learned something from all the flak Paula received in over past racist remarks, but apparently, they didn't.
Or perhaps, for the Deen family, any publicity is good publicity? Kind of hard to explain, otherwise, why in they would have tweeted out a photo , hashtag TransformationTuesday, in which Bobby was shown wearing ridiculous brown facial makeup meant to impersonate Cuban-born Ricky Ricardo in a bit of I Love Lucy -themed cosplay.
Ummm, needless to say, this didn't go over well with the Twitterati, who were quick to remind the Deens that yeah, racism is still is no longer a thing. The tweet quickly disappeared from Paula's account, but thanks to the magic of thousands of screen captures, it has an internet half-life of approximately forever.
Oddly enough, the one thing no one seemed to weigh in on is how weird it was for Bobby and his mom to be dressing up as a married couple. The racism thing was nasty enough, but that just took things to a whole new level of "ick. David Burtka and Neil Patrick Harris just seem like the cutest couple ever, don't they?
Quite the new millennium fairy tale — former child star of Doogie Howser, M. Turns out there's a snake even in this Garden of Eden — David Burtka, star of Food Network's Life of the Party with David Burtka , is extremely jealous over the fact that his hubby's quite the man-magnet, and doesn't trust Harris to be immune to temptation. In fact, when Harris was offered the starring role in the musical Hedwig and the Angry Inch in , insiders said Burtka issued an ultimatum : six months max for Harris on Broadway, since any longer than that, he thought, would just be asking for trouble.
Despite winning a Tony for his performance as the musical's title character, Harris did, in fact, step down from the role. Since he and his honey bunny still appear to be living happily ever after, perhaps chef Burtka really does know best. Eddie Huang has had quite the checkered career : attorney, stand-up comic, clothing designer, even drug dealer, before finally finding his niche as a restaurateur and celebrity chef with his Food Network hit Cheap Bites.
When his autobiography Fresh Off the Boat got turned into a TV series, Eddie could add one more line to his oddball resume: sitcom character.
Where Eddie got into trouble, however, was in his chosen role as an activist speaking out on behalf of racism directed towards Asians, particularly Asian men. In a New York Times op-ed piece , the Food Network star expressed himself in a way that was itself seen as racist, not to mention sexist, saying: "I feel like Asian men have been emasculated so much in America that we're basically treated like Black women. You know that old saying "Never trust a skinny cook"?
Obviously not the motto of the Food Network, where most of the stars seem chosen for their photogenic looks and star power as well as their culinary chops. Superstar chef Giada de Laurentiis , however, owes her perfect size-2 physique to a super-gross secret. While she preaches the gospel of portion control , an inside source connected to Giada's TV show told Page Six the petite chef never eats one single bite of all that supposedly irresistible food she seems so happy to prepare.
In fact, sometimes Giada doesn't even let that nasty old food touch her lips — instead, she uses an assistant as a kind of "stunt double" for close-up teeth shots, and then has the camera pan back out to show her taking an empty fork out of her mouth. On those occasions where she actually does put food into her mouth, she doesn't swallow it. Instead, Giada spits it into a dump bucket that is kept just off-camera. Ewww, now that's an appetite-killer for sure. While Jamie Oliver used to be the host of a show called The Naked Chef , he never actually stripped down for the camera, so no scandal there.
In fact, the most shocking thing he's done lately isn't even the tiniest bit salacious. It's more of a marketing misstep, yet it's one that got quite a few people pretty upset with him: he released a product called " punchy jerk rice ," with its name and flavoring supposedly inspired by traditional Jamaican cooking. Well, the problem with this product is threefold: Oliver isn't Jamaican, the recipe he uses isn't really all that Jamaican either, and in Jamaica and elsewhere, outside of Jamie's world "jerk rice" isn't even a thing — jerk is a spice rub used to flavor meat.
Protests came from all over, including a Jamaican chef who said he taught Oliver how to make authentic jerk chicken. Dawn Butler, member of the British parliament , and daughter of Jamaican immigrants , called Oliver's product an act of cultural appropriation. While Jamie tried to explain away his faux pas by saying his intent was just to pay homage to the flavor's inspiration, many in the Jamaican community still think he's the real jerk.
In , however, they collaborated on-screen, judging The American Baking Competition. They became quite cozy off-screen as well , indulging in a brief fling that nevertheless had some serious fallout. Eventually, the show was canceled, but the drama didn't stop there.
Paul's wife filed for divorce , and Marcela and her husband also divorced. Although Marcela is no longer currently hosting any TV shows, she's moved on in her personal life, now mother to two kids with her new fiance. Paul, on the other hand, still has a thriving career, judging Bake Off and hosting cooking shows for various TV networks including the Cooking Channel. On the domestic front, however, things have gone pretty far south since he and Marcela parted.
While his wife eventually welcomed him back after the affair, she booted him out again a few years later when he got caught kissing a cooking show contestant. To everyone who watched Down Home With the Neelys during its season run on the Food Network, Pat and Gina seemed like the perfect couple, living and working and cooking side-by-side.
But then, all of a sudden, game over. Marriage over , show over, even their restaurants closed down. What could have caused this sudden, total Neely-pocalypse??? It took several years before the entire truth came out, but in a interview with People Magazine , Gina revealed that her year marriage had grown stale and that she'd actually planned to leave Pat before they were offered the TV show. Gina, a former bank manager, never wanted to become a TV personality, and the pressure this put on her family, not to mention having to fake a happy relationship when she was just no longer feeling it, finally caused her to crack.
In , she grabbed her bags and headed out the door, and after that, only her lawyers did the talking with Pat. Just in Jackson alone, 29 percent of children are food insecure. This puts their futures at risk, and that's why we are grateful to Mississippi Food Network, UMMC and Children's of Mississippi clinicians for joining us to launch the state's first pediatric Food Rx program to improve health and lives. In , the American Academy of Pediatrics released a policy statement recommending that pediatricians screen all children for food insecurity.
By making a food pharmacy available, Children's of Mississippi pediatricians and specialists can enhance health outcomes, by not only recommending food as medicine, but also helping families access the foods they need to follow through with doctor's orders. The UMMC EversCare food pantry will use Amerigroup funding and Mississippi Food Network support to stock the foods needed to help doctors and families fight childhood obesity, diabetes, malnutrition, chronic disease and more.
Mary Taylor, Suzan B. Thames Chair, professor and chair of pediatrics. Establishing our state's first pediatric Food Rx program, is a tremendous step in building better futures, and we can't thank Amerigroup and Mississippi Food Network enough for leading this initiative. It includes the state's only dedicated children's hospital and offers pediatric clinics statewide.
