Ms.Huxtable Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 What a fool I am. I actually believed that what I was seeing on TV was Micheal Smith's home. I am so naive. Farmhouse at the cove. Check out the "deatils" link for the kitchen.Why does this sadden me? And why don't they call it "Chef at the Cove" instead of "Chef at Home"?

bradm Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I think a lot of (or even most) shows that purport to show a chef in the chef's home kitchen do that. I remember seeing a show about the development of Giada De Laurentiis as a TV chef, and they actually detailed how they searched out a (different) house for each season, took it over (with crew and gear) for the few weeks they took to shoot a season, then left.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I saw that chefography as well. Alton Brown also showed a 'behind the scenes' episode where he said that they started in a real kitchen, but they couldn't continue filming in the house so they created a set that looked exactly like the original kitchen.the michael smith thing is odd though. they really make it look like it is his home. it is a home, just not his.

phishtaper Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 it is a home, just not his. it's one hell of a home, though. the view alone is unbelievable! i'd give one half of my left nipple to live in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Huxtable Posted January 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 "Gabe's room" is likely a broom closet.Are Rachel and Gabe really his wife and son? Are they getting paid to go onto the set and eat "dinner"?I feel duked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberdinghy Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 If the Butterfat Contessa is actually married to Jeffrey, I think they may have some issues in thier relationship....they seem so awkward towards each other, and Jeffrey never seems to know where anything is.

So Ina's making Chicken Piccatta with creamy buttermilk mash and carmelized Herb Roasted Onions followed by homey Apple and Pear Crisp." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 If I was Jeffrey I'd spend as much time in the city as possible as well so I didn't have to always go home to that hectoring, perfectionist whale who never stops with the nervous laughter. did I just type that?

Tremendous word. Good show old chap.I'm digging the Barefoot Contessa talk. Such a painfully enjoyable program. Jeffrey is the most uncomfortable person on TV. And every episode I've seen ends with brownies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcO Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I love when the gay florist comes round.I actually don't mind her show but she gets a bit much after a while. I also hate how everything is just so "perfect" all the time.I bet that before the two hour drive back to the Hamptons every week, Jeffrey sticks his hang-low into an egg burrito to mask the scent of city skank. And maybe, just maybe, because he likes it. Functional and appealing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phishtaper Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 you will all surely burn in hell for your mockery ... or, at least be lightly roasted for 45 minutes on a non-stick cookie sheet in a stainless steel, convection oven, pre-heated to 400F. check often, and baste for juicier results.

rubberdinghy Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Awesome avatar...Damn good thread hijack too...Does anyone remember Smith's old show...the one in that tiny restaurant when he had the long hair...He did have all his little boy toys around him there.

rubberdinghy Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Sorry...One my point...How can I find the shirts that Ina wears on the show?Unfortunately, I have my shirts made for me by a dressmaker in NY City. I wanted a certain style and couldn't find it in enough colors, so I had them custom made. The original shirt came from Eileen Fisher, so that's a good place to look. I could say something horrible here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And unwashed, presumably.)Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberdinghy Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 or something along the lines of using one of her shirts as the main sail on the "Bluenose"2008-I'm going straight to hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Huxtable Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I can honestly say that I have never noticed her shirts before. Not exactly a fashion icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
