Check, Please! South Florida

Last week, the Channel 2 studios were full of extra activity, as we taped the first four shows of the new series, Check, Please! South Florida.  Hosted by celebrity chef and local restaurateur Michelle Bernstein, the concept of the show is to allow South Florida residents the unique opportunity to be "food critics-for-a-day."  The first four shows featured a variety of restaurants, from barbecue joints to high-end bistros, stretching from Miami-Dade up to Palm Beach county. 

The guest reviewers were just as diverse, from a retired New York police officer in West Palm, to a hotel concierge on trendy South Beach, to a skydiving instructor from Ft. Lauderdale.....proof that everyone - from all walks of life - has an opinion on food!  And speaking of opinions....when the cameras rolled, the sparks flew, as the guests passionately discussed, debated, and celebrated their dining experiences.  Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming series, Check, Please! South Florida -- and to learn how you can sign up to be a guest on a future show.  Check, Please! South Florida will be served up to viewers during the last week of January on Channel 2.
