Food Network cooking shows: Are those really their personal kitchens?

Do they really tape those cooking shows in the chef's home?

Giada, Ina, Ree, Trisha and the rest?

Most are rental homes.

They did a behind the scenes program once showing how they make these places work. The place where Sandra Lee films they showed the floor with all the wires and stuff. It's pretty funny.

Ina's new set is her barn that she had built for filming just like Paula Deen built a set/kitchen in her house to film her shows. Everyone else is either a set that was built specifically for them (Guy Fieri is a set built for him, Tyler Florence's old show they built a set that was a replica of his kitchen at home).

Very interesting… and a bit disappointing for some reason.

Could you imagine film crews in your house all the time?

No I cannot ${#emotions_dlg.w00t}$ , but my MIL lives in the East Hampton neighborhood where Martha Stewart used to live. She filmed her shows from the house and there were many neighbors who objected to the film crews coming and going at all times. I guess you can't believe anything you see on t.v.

I can't speak for all, but I remember hearing that the studio set for Tyler Florence's show was a replica of his home kitchen.

I bet that behind the scenes program was interesting. Weren't Ina's old shows actually in her kitchen, deck or yard? I even remember one where some author stayed overnight and she showed the bedroom she was using. Ina left soaps, lotions and stuff to make the stay more comfy.
