Good news! The 2008 Golden Clog Award nominees have been announced. Developed by Anthony Bourdain and Michael Ruhlman, they're a delightful spin on the idea of "awards." These include:
The Alton: for being on the Food Network and yet, somehow managing to Not Suck
My fave, the Barefoot Contessa herself, Ina Garten, is nominated.
The Cat Cora: for most fame based on least actual culinary achievement; Bourdain has even agreed to nominate himself for this one.
The Fergus: for greatest achievement in pork and/or guts.
The list goes on, but I'll let you discover it for yourself. It makes me laugh. How I would love to share a bottle of Jameson with these guys.
