I only discovered this "show in a show" at the very end (thankfully). Apparently for the past bunch of Mondays, The Rachael Ray Show has been having a cooking competition called "Hey, Can You Cook?". This morning was week four of four and the day they crown the winner. Apparently it began with five contestants and we lost one each week.

In the past month's restaurant happenings, the top story -- many folks have been looking forward to this for as long as a year -- is that Alain Ducasse has at last opened a stateside outpost of his casual Paris and Tokyo bistros of the same name: Benoit in the space that was formerly La Côte Basque at 60 W. 55th St in Manhattan.
The restaurant retains the polished, old-world look of its former self and feature a collection of antiques sourced from Ducasse’s personal collection. Executive chef Sebastien Rondier will serve a traditional French bistro menu with classics like roasted ... {More...}

We just, I mean literally just the other day posted about ten new food shows coming on the Food Network and wham we found yet another one. This time we found it through the casting call pages. The current working title of the show is Food: True Life and would be on FN via Al Roker Productions, so you can guess who the host of the show might be. From the casting call:
Food Network is looking for amazing food related stories for a groundbreaking new series! (Just so you know, really, this was originally in all caps ... {More...}
