The Title Says It All

"I'm not sure what I was expecting, but the title says it all. Eight buffed and nearly naked men-- they wear only chef hats, kerchiefs around their necks and short red aprons-- named Victor Brookes, Edmund Druilhet, Gavin Hamilton, Jason Holt, Dominic Palmieri, John Robb, Tom Robbins and Zachery Weathers assist one Jaye P. Morgan in her Southern California kitchen to prepare Capelli D'Angelo Checca, Scallops and Maui Onions, Cornish Game Hen, Fresh Fruit Tart, Baked Salmon and Pasta and Caviar.

The usual sexual innuendos you would expect to hear when men walk around with their butts hanging out are made-- comments about baskets, "sweet cheeks," "virgin" olive oil, "double exposure," etc., although one would have thought that at least one of these assorted sillies would have made a pun on "buns."

What is even more surprising is that the recipes appear to be good ones and you can pick up a cooking point or two if you are so inclined-- how to scald and peel a tomato, how to roll out pastry dough-- Edmund is quite good at this task-- and how to avoid breaking dry pasta, for instance."
