Nov 18

Today was a very exciting day, I was invited to do a live cooking demonstration on WOAI Channel NBC Channel 4 in San Antonio.  Today, I showed home viewers how to prepare our famous Spicy Shrimp and Chicken as well as talk about our new Holiday Feastival menu items.  These shows are always a blast, however today was a little different.  I was blown away by how professional and hospitable everyone at the station was, and even more blown away by how much they loved Carino's Italian!  Shelly Miles, the host of the show 'San Antonio Living', was great to work with on set and was genuinely interested in our menu and the food.  One of the camera operators was also very excited to tell me that she has had her birthday dinner at Carino's for 5 years in a row!  That totally made my day.  Here are some pictures from today, a shot of Shelly and I after the show and also a shot of the set before we went live.

I have been doing these shows for about 4 years now, and they are still a bit stressful to prepare for.  The biggest thing is that I need to make sure I have all my ingredients and utensils ready to go - I have a phobia of getting halfway through a live segment and realizing that I am missing something to complete the recipe!  Luckily that has never happened.  Other than that, once the camera is rolling it is pure fun.  Cooking and talking about food when you know the people watching at home are truly interested and might even try to cook the recipe themselves!

It's true that people love to watch cooking demonstration and have a great zeal to cook the same in their home. I watched your show about preparing Spicy Shrimp and Chicken and tried out  during my Christmas holidays. The taste was great. It's nice to hear about your experience during the show and the photographs looks great. It's pretty poor to hear that you run the show for 4 years and you miss something to complete the recipe!. Interesting post and thanks for sharing.
