Two Things
July 18, 2008 | By Adam Roberts | 4 Comments(1) If you want a free sushi set, you have a very good chance of winning one by taking a picture of yourself doing an Iron Chef Chairman impression and e-mailing it to fndish@foodnetwork.com. If you have a Mac, just open up the Photo Booth app, look seriously at the camera, snap a pic and send it in. [Contest is part of this week's episode.]
(2) I am doing something VERY sketchy this weekend. I’m the “celebrity” guest at sketch comedy troupe Slightly Known People’s weekly show tomorrow (Saturday) night, at 10:30, at The Green Room, 45 Bleecker Street. The cover is $12 and my participation involves an Iron Chef-style cocktail-making contest with guest judges Mary Greenwalt from “I Survived A Japanese Game Show” and Serious Eats’s own Erin Zimmer. Hope to see you there!

My daughter also has a sketch comedy group that plays Second City Toronto called ‘Out of Line’ – maybe we can make a ‘shiddach?”

I forgot to get a Sushi set while I lived in NY. That would come in handy out here in LA. Have a great time at your sketch show, wish I could see it.
I was in Edge of Insanity, an improv/sketch show in NY
I’ll be there tonight. Can’t wait to see you perform. I’ll be heckling from the back.
:O( Wish I could’ve gone. I have no doubts you were absolutely fabulous and hilarious.
