This Wednesday, the show "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" pays a visit to Bobby's Hawaiian Style Restaurant in Everett, WA (north of Seattle), run by Hawaiian expat Bobby Nakihei. When we learn the air-date, I'll let you know.
Erika Engle did a piece about this episode for the Star Bulletin this morning. (Pssst, Erika! There are more than 7 Hawaiian style restaurants in the area, if you count all the fast food places. Next time I see Bobby, I'll remind him).

Actually, he posted his snarky remark before I had a chance to go and edit my post (I was in the process of reviewing the post when he posted, and since I have him on ignore, I had no idea what snarky comment he made until you happened to quote him).

Well, damn - you got me on that. Shall I apologize on the "Apology Thread," or will it suffice to say "I'm sorry" here, Joe?
No apology necessary. And the edit was done waaaaaaay after I made my post, which makes me think it was done IN RESPONSE to what I wrote. Not because she was "reviewing" what she wrote.
We watch the food network for recipes and for seeing how some things are manufactured. Thanks to Paula Deen we discovered the recipe for this family's favorite soup, by far. That is the Taco Soup, and it's barely soupy and dang for flavor, energy, it's filling and did I mention it tastes awesome?
I got an awesome recipe for southern fried chicken from her show too. Marinate the chicken in hot sauce, then coat with seasoned flour (salt, pepper and garlic). Then fry on med-low heat in peanut oil (unless you have peanut alergies of course) until golden brown. The lower heat insures the chicken is done on the inside. Best fried chicken I've ever eaten.
My favorite show in "Dinner Impossible." That guy Robert Irvin does some pretty mean cooking under "Nearly Impossible" circumstances. Wednesday's at 7pm, opposite Bravo's Top Chef.
sandra lee on semi homemade is my least favorite. her food and table settings look horrible.
Way too cutesy for me. Does she still match the kitchen decor with the food? Wasn't she the one that had a pink kitchen on the show when she prepared pink food? Or was it that her dress matched the kitchen? Either way, I think I watched her show once. Onnnly once......

Yeah, but she's the hotness.

I watched a bio about her. I think she was the oldest of four kids and they were orphans and she raised them and she fed them and had to come up with creative ways to save money, lived with her grandma for a while, it's really a compelling story. So when I first saw her and her schtick, I thought what a gimmick...but she deserves more credit. Do you remember that window treatment thingy AS SEEN ON TV? She INVENTED that. Talk about HOAKEY! But really. It's indicative of her drive and ambition, to rise out of the stratum to which she was born. Man, every time I'm scratching my head about what to feed my kids, I think about reaching for a can of cream of mushroom soup...and she lets me off the hook.
