A Good Cause & Chef, Todd English



Heard the news about the Macy's Chefs A-Go-Go, a national food truck tour showcasing Macy’s Culinary Council (MCC) and it's scheduled Celebrity Chef, Restaurateur, Author, Entrepreneur, and Television Personality, Todd English (who is from Boston, Massachusetts) and nearly broke my ankles on the cobbled streets of Boston to get there!



Chef, Todd English is best known for his restaurant, Olives, located in both Boston & Las Vegas, Nevada as well as his TV cooking show, "Food Trip with Todd English", on PBS, btw--and to top it off, he is quite the hunka-doodle-doo, if I may say so.



What a great crew he had with him that day. They were hustling the whole time with smiling faces. I felt like I was at Disney! The line was not ginormous--but it was continuous and they kept it moving. Chef English was serving for a while and then went back inside to do some hands on cooking. He was sweet enough to stick his head out ...twice (my darn camera) to pose for a picture. He asked if I wanted to pose with him, but I was looking quite gnarly with mussed up hair & didn't want to ruin the picture.-lol



The food was d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s! I had the prime rib slider, a bag of fresh potato chips and a sweet little cupcake.



I am loving these gourmet cooking trucks. Last week was the Cooking Channels Ice Cream Truck at Boston's Harbourfest--El Diablo ice cream was insane! (J.P.Licks, Chocolate ice cream with cinnamon & cayenne pepper). Insane!

Keep your eyes peeled for these events, guys--it is so much fun!

Ciao!
