'Ted And Honey' In Cobble Hill


Dear Reader,
You know that cute little restaurant next to Cobble Hill Park? Well, its chef is going to be on a new Food Network show called "Chopped."
Brooklyn restaurant owner and executive chef Christopher "Ted" Jackson of Cobble Hill's Ted and Honey will be featured in an episode to air on Tuesday, January 20th at 10 PM.
The Food Network describes the show as follows:

Passion and expertise rule the kitchen on the fast-paced new series, Chopped. Hosted by Ted Allen (Food Detectives), the series challenges four up-and-coming chefs to turn a selection of everyday ingredients into an extraordinary three-course meal. After each course, a contestant gets "chopped" until the last man or woman left standing claims victory. Each week, a rotating panel of culinary elite judges including Alex Guarnaschelli, Aaron Sanchez, and Geoffrey Zakarian will decide whose dishes shine the brightest and award the winner $10,000.

The episode featuring Ted Jackson is entitled " Tofu, Blueberries and Oysters." Here is more info:

Who doesn't love tofu? We will find out when four new chefs attempt to work some bean curd magic in round one. Then in the second course, a challenging surf and turf basket spells trouble for all. What will it take to amaze the judges all the way through to the dessert course? Will they devour the dishes that are clean and rustic, fall for creative fusion, or reward the chef with the most masterful techniques?
Sounds fun, no?

Ted and Honey is located at 264 Clinton Street
