Oh, this is fun: Stephanie Izard is opening up a diner!
The Little Goat will open within steps of her restaurant on Randolph Street likely this fall and will have the feeling of a classic East Coast diner. And don't worry, there's nothing "gastro" about this joint...
The 100-seat diner will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and have an all-day menu so you can get breakfast for dinner. It'll have private dining, and a bar that'll look more like a classic diner counter with those red-leather-topped stools with metal rimming that swivel. Izard will host cooking classes and they're going to move the Girl & The Goat's bread program to this space, so if you're craving fresh, warm bread at 7 a.m., they'll sell it in a bake shop. You can pop into the photo booth and, when you really want to feel like you're in "My Hammy," take in a game of shuffle board. At least the kind you find at a bar.
I thought he seemed familiar - maybe raced with his sister?
ETA: Is this who she said? That's who I was thinking of but now I can't remember if it's right.
Ah! Thank you! That one shot and quick mention made it seem like he was just a random fan or something, and I was like, WTF. How did that happen? I feel like they should make more of Finding Love On The Race, but maybe that's coming?
I know! I was shocked that it was such a quick passing comment that Christina made, and not the show being all The Race Brings Two Hearts Together about it. I don`t suppose it`s because it`s an interracial couple, is it? It just felt like such a weird way to bring it up, like I would have expected it to be a storyline.
I wonder if they tried to get his team back for this season and since they couldn't, decided not to make it a storyline?
So Chopped All-Stars is mainly The Next Food Network Stars rejects? That's disappointing!
I think that's just first round, Rayne. They show a lot of chefs in the intro.
They just did that for the first one. It looks like the next one is going to be Anne Burrell, Robert Irvine, Duff (from Ace of Cakes) and someone else.
Then I think one night is going to be former judges on the show (I know I've seen Aron Sanchez and Amanda Frietag in the previews) and then I'm not sure after that.
I'm really interested in seeing the judges see how it is on the other side.
Anyone else watch Celebrity Rehab? Mike Starr died. So sad. [link]
ANTM: I think tonight is the makeover episode. Drama! tears! Tyra's crack-brained ideas of what the girls should look like!
