Quick, name the top five chefs in Chicago. Now name the five most famous chefs in the country.

As Maureen Jenkins writes in today's Sun-Times, "the shortage of chefs of African descent is noteworthy if only by...

Surfing between the Police reunion on the Grammys last night and an all-new evening of animation on Fox (and if Family Guy's "My Drunken Irish Dad" song isn't being sung en masse this St. Patrick's Day, we'll be sorely disappointed), Avenues' chef Graham Elliot Bowles took on Bobby Flay on "Iron Chef America." Knowing that the Tribune had Bowles' appearance featured in yesterday's Sunday magazine, we didn't buy the Sunday paper yesterday and stayed away...

We don't know anyone who watches "Today" at 9:45 a.m., so we missed Graham Elliot Bowles' Valentine's Floral Menu segment.

Chicagoist totally &hearts's Iron Chef - we swear we've seen like every episode and we still watch it over and over. So it's only natural that we've been eagerly awaiting the debut of Iron Chef America. Gone will be the voice dubbing, exotic theme ingredients (shark fin, anyone?), and little asian actresses giggling (unless you count Julie Chen), but still.. we watched all of the American specials they broadcasted and we're sure we'll be watching all of this new series too. Any way you serve Iron Chef, we just can't get enough!
