Get him in front of people, though, and he turns into a charlatan who might as well be hosting a game show -- which, come to think of it, he does.

Worlds better than Rachael Ray's annoying nicknames. I'd like to know if the menu is up a notch from Applebee's before I bother to go, though.

I'd still go to this restaurant though, once the hype dies down. I'm sure it will have redeeming qualities. He also won’t eat eggs. I’d still go to this restaurant though, once the hype dies down.

Hell, he's downright soft-spoken on his cooking show in comparison. But he just loves to eat well-made comfort food, and I love to eat well-made comfort food. If he pointed out constantly that he was cutting-edge or amazing or whatever he'd be a douche, but he instead defers to the people around him and looks on in adoration. He plays the part well. In summary, no way will I be suckered into another Food Network-named restaurant in NYC. I'm looking at you, Nelly's.
