Everything You Need to Know About the Guesting Book Tour (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It might not come as a surprise that most of my brain space these days is dedicated to the launch of my new book, Guesting (out November 3), so get ready for a whole lot of info about the book tour and how to pre-order, which has a huge impact on where the book is sold and how easy it is to find around the country (here’s a great NPR Planet Money episode on the topic in case you’re curious about the nitty-gritty!).<d
A time was had at the 2026 Primetime Emmys! Plus, the Classic & New Restaurants I Swear By, For (Almost) Every Occasion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hello! ICYMI: Coming to you hot off the heels of the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, representing Top Chef and celebrating our four nominations, including Outstanding Reality Competition Program! We didn’t take home the statue, but we had a dazzling night. I got to experience it all with my ride-or-die co-hosts Tom and Kristen, our talented team of producers, as well as my husband Jeremy and daughter Dahlia by my side.

Read excerpt
I’m hearing a lot of end-of-summer and back-to-school talk this week, and I’m not having it.

It also means I’m going to keep indulging my daughter’s requests to take a walk to Dolce, our favorite local ice cream spot, or make this irresistible recipe for campfire sundaes, f

Most importantly, we’ve officially taken our big family trip of the summer, and it’s one I’ll look back on with joy for a very long time.Subscribe nowI’ll be honest: Scotland wasn’t on my bucket list. We d
After Two Decades on Top Chef and Countless Days on the Road, I’ve (Almost) Mastered the Art of Packing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I haven’t actually counted how many days out of a year I sleep somewhere other than my own bed. But, I know that between shooting seasons of Top Chef, doing press to promote each season, events, appearances, book tours, visiting my family in Canada and abroad, and, when I’m lucky, traveling with friends and family, I’ve gotten really good at knowing what I need to bring with me, and even more importantly, what I don’t<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/imag
