Shes chatting with the Bayless duo about their culinary journey, philosophy and current projects.

What does it take to put on a successful television show? What is real Mexican cuisine? Find out - on Chefs Story!. This program was sponsored by Whole Foods Market. The only time you should become a chef is if you cant not do it. I tried to get away from it and I couldnt stop cooking. [13:00] I think a lot of people somehow think the on-air talent can do everything - its not true at all. Everyperson who has some sort of front-end talent needs a really strong producer or editor behind that keeps the whole thing going. Most of my success has been due to the fact that Deann is such a great producer. [30:00] In the restaurant business one of the things we always try to do is create community.
