New, 3 comments

In this edition of The Five Food And Dining Videos That You Need To Watch Today, Anthony Bourdain shares more of his feelings on Alice Waters and details from his new book, Gordon Ramsay prepares a holiday meal with a bunch of prisoners, the Private Chefs of Beverly Hills make dreams come true, and much, much more!

Here's our first sneak peek at the show—let's enjoy it while we can:

4) Food Wars Hits Lockhart, TX: The new episode of Food Wars features a throwdown between Texas barbecue kings Smitty's and Kreuz Market. The local 'cue lovers are pretty worked up about it, alright:

5) Curtis Stone's Spanish Touch: Australian celled chef (and dreamboat) Curtis Stone stopped by the fourth hour of the Today Show this morning to make a little Spanish Paella with Hoda Kotb and Charles in Charge star Ralph Macchio:
