10 year old WOWS Bobby

On a 2007 episode of Boy Meets Grill Bobby's guest is a 10 year old girl named Allegra, he calls her his friend, they met in the Bahamas where her mother opened a store next to his restaurant and she was so interested in cooking that he had her help him out over the summer. Isn't that cute? Yes, yes it is. So this child might as well have been 30 the way she spoke about food and her vocabulary was better than some adults I've known. Towards the end of the show Bobby allows Allegra to take the reigns and instruct him and us how to make her own ginger lemonade. A few minutes in after she tells Bobby that she has to add simple syrup and smash the blackberries, he looks at her in obvious amazement and exclaims, "HOW DO YOU KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT FOOD? HOW DO YOU KNOW??" She was also able to talk through the process while doing it on camera, which if you've ever seen The Next Food Network Star, many of those contestants vying for their own cooking show can't even do that. It was a nice episode, found it On Demand with Direct TV. Throwdown on tomorrow night! And also Iron Chef on Sunday. Why would anyone be foolish enough to take on the B Man in Kitchen Stadium?
