Take Home Chef

 September 4th, 2021

If a famous chef came up to you in the grocery store and told you he would buy your groceries and come to your home to cook a fabulous meal for you and whoever you eat with, would you agree?  I think it would be fun.  

I love watching the Take Home Chef on Discovery + channel.   

Curtis Stone is the famous Chef and he asks the women (I have not seen him ask a man to come home and cook for him yet.  I wonder if he ever did?) who they are cooking dinner for and what they liked to eat? What fun that would be.  What would you want him to cook for you?  I'll take a delicious prime rib roast with Yorkshire pudding, a salad and something caramel for dessert. Yes, baked apples with caramel sauce. Yum!  Oh yes add some type of potatoes to the roast please.

Curtis pays for the groceries, gets in their car and then has them pull over to a kitchen specialty store. He goes in and buys some cool kitchen gadget as a gift. Once he bought an ice cream maker.  I wouldn't mind that.



He has the woman call her husband or boyfriend to find out what time they are coming home so he will know how much time they have to fix the meal.   I am sure some of the show is scripted because he never walks up to an ugly or old woman, it's almost always younger, prettier women.  But one woman's oven was so dirty he actually had to scrub it to use it.  So I kind of don't think that part was scripted.  

I usually fast forward the fish dishes because I don't like fish but I want to see what's for dessert.

After I finish this series I'm going to see if there are any other's like it.  I love cooking shows.

Thank you for reading.

I love cooking shows, and house building/renovation shows.
My chef would be James Martin a gorgeous man through and through, I even met him once and have a signed recipe book I never use 😂

I hope we'd all have a chance to have a chef come home to fix us a fantastic meal.

I don't know who James Martin is.

I met Rachael Ray when she was doing her $40 a day show in Asheville and got my books signed. This was before she got real famous.
