Two Shows For Philly Natives
Posted by Foobooz on August 4th, 2008
Aaron McCargo Jr. of Camden debuted his Big Daddy’s House on the Food Network yesterday and now comes word that Philadelphia’s Adam Gertler, a runner-up on the Next Food Network Star will be debuting his own show, Will Work for Food on September 30th.
Gertler’s half-hour Food Network show combines his comedy with a sense of adventure and premieres at 9:30 p.m. Sept. 30. It’s not a cooking show, per se. Gertler will show how people in the food business do their jobs. Among them: potato chip inspector, shark feeder and dog-food taste-tester. Gertler, an actor and former waiter at Amada in Old City, coowned The Smoked Joint, a short-lived barbecue restaurant at the Academy House in Center City.
