Well Fed On the Town

The cult of personality being what it is, let’s give it up for the beautiful ones.

First we start with Giada and an eggplant. Look how she lovingly cradles that melanzane like a baby. That’s a real foodie (and a real lucky aubergine).

We need something to sautee it in, so let’s drop it in a pan with some Rachel Ray EVOO. It’s a cold pressed  extra virgin olive oil that is cool as a cuke. Slice them up with the Wolfgang Puck Special Edition Magnetic Cutting Board with Santoku Knife

We’ll need a good sauce with that. Francis Ford Coppola has a great selection of tomato sauces. Give me a little suga, Godfather.

Of course, wine is mandatory, so let’s call on a real classy wine from Tuscany, Sogno Uno. A product of a collaboration between actress Savanna Samson and maverick winemaker Roberto Cipresso, has been the talk of the Italian wine world since it was first introduced a few months ago. Sogno Uno or “Dream One” is Ms. Samson’s first foray into the wine world. Sogno Uno wine is a blend of 70% Cesanese, 20% Sangiovese and 10% Montepulciano.

And to finish off the mood, how about a little music from Master Sommelier Andrea Immer Robinson? With Pinot, Pasta and Puccini, we’re talking “Al dente.”

And that’s how to hop on the Food Network gravy train.
