Food Network is looking to get in on the major network eating chat fest. I mean, why should ABC’s The Chew get all the attention?
Introducing ‘The Kitchen’.
Food Network kicks off the New Year with the brand-new series The Kitchen, co-hosted by culinary experts Sunny Anderson, Katie Lee, Jeff Mauro, Marcela Valladolid and Geoffrey Zakarian.
From food trend discussions and family meal tips to trivia games and twitter questions from viewers, the one-hour, thirteen-episode series covers all things culinary.
Each episode takes place in the show’s casual, inviting kitchen-living room set, where the five co-hosts come together for lively discussions, recipe demos, guest interviews and, at the close of each episode, “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere,” a special cocktail segment with Chef Geoffrey Zakarian, also a master mixologist.
Other recurring segments include: “Simple Suppers,” where hosts prepare an easy weeknight dinner dish along with tips and ideas; “Personal Faves” featuring co-hosts and their loved ones preparing a favorite family recipe; “Cookbook Club” welcomes cookbook author interviews and demos; and “Myth or Fact” where the co-hosts guess whether a common cooking belief is true or false.
The Kitchen premieres Saturday, January 4th at 11am ET/PT.
