A food cruise? That's sounds interesting. Is it all about how to prepare food professionally? I loved Sarah Moulton and miss her live show she did years ago on the Food Network.
Sounds like the Cooking Channel is decent. I'll check it out. With them showing some of the older shows,are they affiliated with the Food Network?

Wow. Considering that I've never heard a bad thing about the guy, there sure are a ton of people coming out of the wood work to slam the guy. On a positive note, this thread has helped me decide to delete a bunch of DDD that I hadn't had time to watch off of my DVR.

I have the Cooking channel in HD (Comcast).

Damn, that sucks because it's pretty much all instructional shows but it just looks like shit for me.

You're missing the funniest part of that is that they posted it on the URL of "Guysamericankitchenandbar.com" which wasn't registered by Ferry.

I couldn't help but hear that menu being spoken in Patton Oswalt's voice.

But he can't be a racist if he has a recipe for Chicken Tikka Masala?

Re: Guy Fieri allegations of Racism and Homophobia

Are Guy's supposed personality issues the reason for DDD being scaled back from 3 to 2 locations per episode?

Just showing off.

Like most people have said. Love the show, hate him.
