My Favorite celebrity chef is Paula Deen. She is funny and an inspiration to all women to know that we could accomplish our dreams as well. I just love her.
Love her! She’s so REAL!
Thomas Keller, because he is utterly amazing!
I agree . . . I have several cookbooks of his, and someday I’ll dine at The French Laundry! 🙂
Michael Symon because he is an amazing Iron Chef and I love his laugh!
Michael Symon is one of my faves, too! Love his big smile!
Michael Symon for me too! I have been lucky enough to meet him and he is exactly what he appears on tv – love that! And love his cooking!!
Lucky girl! I’d love to meet Michael Symon! Someday . . . 🙂
Alexandra Guarnascheli – I have followed her for a very long time. She is an absolute sweetheart, her shows are so comforting and relaxing and filled with great tips. She has this way of just making you feel like you are at home with her. She is the newest Iron Chef, my favorite show. She also has talked to me on Facebook. I asked her years ago where to find a certain ingredient, Wasabi Root, and she was kind enough to mail me back several times with places to have it shipped from. Great lady!
