Chef Robert Irvin has returned!!! While the Food Network has not really said much about this, it seemed that this return was hatched even when before he was banished for a few shows. You could "feel it". Perhaps the Food Network knew about Irvin’s “slight” misrepresentation of his resume and kept it under wraps until a source found out about it. But it seemed like he would be coming back not matter how good Iron Chef Michael Symon did on his version of the show. Don't get me wrong. I really liked the way Chef Symon pulled off the Cleveland kosher MI assignment even though he is a champion of pork. It was priceless seeing him walking around with yarmulke (skull cap)too. Don’t get me wrong, I like Chef Symon but I really liked the Mission Impossible thing with the car, “ good morning Robert ...” and all of that . As another site said, maybe it’s Irvin’s muscles that also brought in more women on the show and you know how Food Network is all about ratings. I mean they gave a show to someone who can't cook or act or do anything. I would never watch the show that Adam (The Next Food Network Star)is on. He never should have made it to the semis.
I don’t know but I am glad he is back. I am back watching it. Here are some recipes from this episode that I would like to try in the future. You all might beat me to the punch and if so let me know what you think.
