Could be that his wife straightened out those tics?

He's on his third wife. Present one is Stephanie March.

Forget about Bobby Flay, he's ok.... that British kid (whatever his
name is/was) has the absoute worst lisp. It drove me nuts! I still
can't believe FoodTV let him go in front of the camera without giving
him speech therapy. He's a good cook and did interesting things, but
I couldn't stand to hear him talk.

yeah, he's not very good looking or sounding, but his passion for food
is infectious so he grew on me. And I admire his mission to improve
school food in the UK. Lord knows we need a little improvement on that
here in the US too...!

Thank you, YES - Jamie Oliver! I don't understand either what was
sexually appealing about him, but to each her own. Oh, WAIT! I get
it.... he's guy that cooks.

I don't know if you noticed, but I have. The tables have turned! Now
guy cooks, girls don't. Women of my generation put so much effort
into making their sons equal partners, they apparently forgot
cooking/cleaning wasn't an xx gene.

In any case, at least Jamie is a good cook - even though I can't stand
to hear him talk.

Well, I have to agree with many of you, about his voice and his friends.
I remember when the "naked chef" was first mentioned, some of the
members of rec.nude were all atwitter. It was a disappointment, for sure.

never thought he was much to look at, although some of his dishes had
potential. My main concern was the tongue thrust lisp he had, I was always
wondering who would eat the food after he spit on it....sorta like putting a
chef's toque on Daffy Duck.

Not that it has anything to do with the merits or demerits of Flay's
cooking, but there a blind item some time back, clearly about Flay --
and his romp with a transsexual. (I know Flay has a trophy bride.)

Yes there is. And there is going to be a special series on Food
Network, starting in October, to pick a new Iron Chef. Michael
Ruhlman is a judge of this competition. And they have some good chefs
competing for this. I think this will be a great competition.

Ruhlman will probably consult with Bourdain.
