Any Food Network fans?

First off, Paula Dean has the absolute best recipes on television. I've made alot of her stuff and everything has come out delicious.

I don't like emeril much, but the best meal out I've ever had was at K-Pauls. It's owned by Paul Prudhomme, an authentic cajun/creole chef. I've been replicating his recipes in my own home for years and he's by far my favorite chef. He used to have a TV show, but that may have been locally when I lived in SE texas.

I'm not sure if he's still in business since his shop was in New Orleans, but It was Very Reasonable and from what I hear his prices are always pretty fair and wow... You won't find a better blend of flavor in any kind of food in the world.... The depth and the way the peppers clean your palate after every bite...

sorry food is one of my passions...

If you're more than a novice in the kitchen I suggest you check out some of his recipes in Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen. The Seafood and Andouille Gumbo and the Shrimp/Crawfish Etoufee' are my favorites. Chicken Etoufee' is pretty good too, just be prepared to take on an endevor with most of his meals to make them come out right.
