Bastet April 25 Author Share April 25 I cannot for the life of me remember a single thing about Joe Flamm, down to whether I liked him, from his season, but I thought he was fine here. Except that he's one of the many people who pronounces mascarpone as "marscapone", something that bugs me in non-chefs and drives me absolutely bonkers in chefs. "How old do you think I am?" in response to her asking if he'd ever worked for Wolfgang made me laugh. I liked the shout-out to the importance of PA work to everyone else doing their jobs, as it's a wide variety of tasks, many of them not pleasant, for very little money (it's a job people take just to be part of production and try to make contacts). I wouldn't eat the sweet pizza if you paid me, but I'd definitely try the spicy and sweet one. I like a lot of seafood pizzas, and I've had one similar to the smoked salmon pizza, but smoked salmon is just okay to me, so that's how I felt about the pizza. I enjoy Kristen's ranch love. I don't dip pizza with toppings on it in ranch, but the only way I will eat any portion of crust that is bare is to dip it in ranch. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/145022-the-dish-with-kish/page/3/#findComment-8645043
