Who will be The Next Food Network Star. I do not know, but I'm hoping Doreen Fang has a shot. She is one of the finalists vying for the chance to host their own show on the Food Network. I didn't catch it, but the new season premiered yesterday. Check out Doreen's blog here: Dining with Doreen.
Doreen describes her cuisine as California, with heavy Asian influences. More on Doreen, including video, at the show site here. LAist also has an interview with Doreen last week: The Next Food Network Star: Doreen Fang.
But wait! You should also meet finalist Aarti Sequeira, a former CNN producer turned host of her own online cooking show, Aarti Paarti. According to her bio, she likes to "play around with Indian flavors and figure out how to add them to American classics."
Here's a recent interview Aarti did with her (our) alma mater's paper The Daily Northwestern: 15 Minutes With: Aarti Sequeira, NU journalist turned cook. Go Wildcats! And here's a Los Angeles Tiems article on her: They all want to be the next Guy Fieri. And an interview with LAist: The Next Food Network Star: Aarti Sequeira.
