So Long and Farewell!

To our loyal food loving listeners-

We have loved chatting with you every Saturday for the past 5+ years but unfortunately we must bid you adieu as our show has been cancelled. We are going to miss each and every one of you and your passion for cooking, dining and all things food-related. We hope to see you at the restaurants, and keep an eye out on www.tomdouglas.com and www.rovers-seattle.com for a possible new show as well as upcoming events.

Cheers to you and yours

“In the Kitchen with Tom and Thierry” by producer Katie O

Saturday, March 13, 2010 @ 3:20pm
UH, Where’s Thierry?
Thierry is out of the studio today, cooking up a storm for Garfield High School! What a lucky group of 450!

So, Tom is left to man the radio waves by his lonesome- however, he’ll have plenty of friends to talk to over the phone to keep him company.

He’ll let the ladies go first today: Amy Pennington will be chatting live from the gardens while she plants the tender leaf, mache. After that, we’ll go straight over to producer Katie O who will be coming to us from the Pike Place Market’s Ghost Tour. Spooky.

During the second hour of the show, Tom will chat with Big Ken of Big Al Brewing Company about Irish Reds and Blacks in preparation for St. Patty’s Day this week. And the boozy fun doesn’t stop there, because Tom will also talk with our weekly wine contributor, Mike Teer of Pike and Western Wine Shop. They’ll discuss a fantastic French wine that pairs nicely with fondue.

All this, PLUS delicious/not delicious: Irish Cheese Edition, AND trivia with great prizes- including pairs of tickets to this year’s Taste Washington.

“In the Kitchen with Tom and Thierry” by producer Katie O

Is that Tom’s voice??
Tom is out of town in the Big Apple! So what does that mean for “In the Kitchen” this week? Well, I’ll tell you dear listeners…

It means that Tom has brought in a substitute co-host for Thierry. Producer Katie O will be sitting in with Thierry this week to bring you a fun-filled 3 hours of shenanigans.

The duo will be chatting with our weekly Urban Pantry gal Amy Pennington about the multi-faceted, wonderful world of ROLLED OATS! The guy on the cylindrical Quaker Oatmeal box would be proud.

Mike Teer will bring us one of the most exciting pieces of wine news this year: The first rose release of the season! Tune in to hear about this favorite pink drink.

Also, hot of the heels of Tom’s event Baconopolis, we’ll be doing a delicious/not delicious bacon edition! Discerning palates will tell you if in fact, all bacon is as delicious as we surmise it to be.

And coming to us live from the streets of Seattle- Pamela Hinckley with the beat report. Since Katie O will be in studio, we’re sending Pam out to drink on the town on Katie’s behalf.

All of this craziness PLUS the trivia and giveaways (which includes a menu tasting for Thierry’s new place, Luc AND tickets to this year’s Taste Washington Event!)

Tom will be doing the show live, from the beautiful shores of Hawaii! Thierry however, will be here in our quiant little rainy city of Seattle.

Yes listeners, grab your ukulele and put on that grass skirt because we’re talking all about the food from the majestic Islands of Hawaii.

At the 5 o’clock hour we have a very special guest, Mark Peel, owner of Campanile Restaurant in LA, on to chat about his beautiful new book, “New Classic Family Dinners”. Mark is a renowned chef and a six-time James Beard Award nominee. The book is a reflection of Mark’s cooking philosophy about “drawing out the maximum flavor from good ingredients” and he’ll be sharing one of his recipes with us!

Producer, Katie O, wishes she was in Hawaii too- so instead she’ll play pretend by taking a fake island vacation sipping Mai Tais and Pina Coladas at Hula Hula in downtown Seattle. She, Tom and Thierry will talk Tiki Culture.

All that plus Hawaiian themed trivia all show long!

Mahalo!
