I think the show is well written, informative and shot very nicely. There is a lot of good info on there. However, I find the host to be awful. I hate the way he eats, popping food into his mouth and leaving his fingers up in the air while he chews. And his smug little expressions are corny and he talks frequently with his mouth full of food. It sometimes sounds like the microphone is in his mouth and it's just gross. I recently watched the Spain episode. The scene with him eating the suckling pigs' head in the beginning was disgusting. That baby pig deserved better. And he always refers to the viewer as "Kids" - "when in doubt kids, always use your hands" Whatever.

Is that the place between 7-Eleven and Lutherville Bike Shop?

Surprisingly, I haven't seen any spots on FOX as of yet. I'm betting they will be advertising the crap out of it during the American Idol final next week.

Well I am not fully aware of what is going on in Baltimore, but the Yankee's in town w/Orioles could be part of the combo. Usually attracts a big crowd. ← You got it. Yankees are in town. Streets filled with New Yorkers. Stay clear of Inner Harbor.

Faidley's is a MUST and an excellent choice for lunch. Mama's is most definitely open for dinner Sunday night and still my main rec for you. Please, I'm begging you, whatever you do, do not go to Phillips in Inner Harbor. It is a tourist trap hell hole. McCormick and Schmicks is OK, but it's a generic chain and rather expensive. LP Steamers is a good choice. Browns Wharf I would skip. You could also try Nick's Fish House across the harbor. Same type of menu as Mama's, but more outdoor seating. The food will be better at Mam's though. http://www.nicksfishhouse.com/

Mama's on the Half Shell in Canton (5 min cab ride from Inner Harbor) is right up your alley. Great seafood, great oyster bar, true Baltimore. http://www.mamasonthehalfshell.com/

How are you getting the "F Word" in the U.S.?

Poor Ramsay. Looks like Kelly is off this week. And her replacement is the stunning Whoopie Goldberg. Seems like he likes to flirt with the ladies. Um, maybe not today.

My DVR says it will be back 6/22.

?? Ouch.

What? Soigne closed?? Damn, I heard really good things and never got to try it. If anyone knows the deal, let us know? I'll be hitting Brewer's Art this Saturday eve for dinner. Thanks!

I will be in Herndon for work all week by myself. Looking for some good Sushi. I'd be willing to drive like 10 minutes from my luxurious Holiday Inn Express on Elden St. Any recommendations for a bar with above-average food in the same area would also be helpful.

They have to know. Ming Tsai had a freakin air compressor and a fan on the set for the duck. I doubt those are regular items they keep lying around. And they don't really talk about any kind of menu with their sous chefs in the beginning, everybody just seems to start cooking.

If your in "downtown" Charlotte Amalie St Thomas, you can try Glady's Cafe in the Royal Dane Mall. Pretty authentic West Indian fare - oxtail, mutton, salt fish and roti's. The place is nice, but it's tucked back in the mall off the main street so no views. Also, a place called Cuzzin's on Back Street is supposedly good for West Indian food.
