You Know The Great Irony Is That

A Friend Told Me About The Casting Notice For 'queer Eye.' I Was In Chicago And I Had A Contract With 'esquire' Magazine, So Had Been Coming To New York City Regularly And Thought I'd Catch A Cheap Flight, Crash On A Friend's Sofa And Do This Hilarious Audition That I Had No Chance Of Winning.

I Went In Saying I Wanted To Be The Food Guy.

One Of The Smartest Things You Can Do On 'chopped' Is To Take One Of Those Ingredients And Make A Pickle Out Of It, Because Almost Every Dish Benefits From That. I'm Feeling Like Those Intuitions Are Becoming More Natural.

In Recent Years, I've Been Writing Because I'm Fortunate Enough To Work In The World Of Food Television, To Travel And Taste And Learn About Cooking From The Best Chefs In The Business.

I Had A Really Good Time With Martha Stewart, Who Also Is Somebody I Really Admire A Lot. I've Learned A Lot From Her And I Think All Of America Has, About Attention To Detail And Using Fresh Ingredients And Making Things Beautiful And Special.
