One of my Food Network guilty pleasures is Dinner: Impossible. I like the challenges, I really enjoy the creativity required to pull it off and I love Robert Irvine. The accent combined with those intense food skills really set my heart afluttering. Knowing all this, you'll understand just how tickled I was when I discovered earlier today that Food for Thought, the behind-the-scenes blog over at Food Network Canada currently has a post up about Chef Irvine, along with a brief interview. Fun fact I learned from the post? Chef Irvine is excited about stone-ground mustard and rice wine vinegar these days. A man who can get excited about mustard is definitely a man after my own heart. Food for Thought asks Robert Irvine ten questions

1Thanks for the link! I am intrigued by his show because I seem similar to him -- loud, imposing but instructional. I feel that my way is usually the right way in the kitchen and it works out every time, as does his way. It figures a mandolin would be his favorite tool, such speed in it!

Does anyone know what kind of knives he uses? I've seen them on the show and they look like shiny blue knives. I think they're cool but I have no clue what they heck they are or where to find them.

I saw the show a few nights ago and he said they were Titanium knives. As for the brand, I don't know. I think it's time for a scavenger hunt.
He and Bobby Flay are my food hero's.

The knives may be Kasumi brand. I found the Chroma Kasumi Titanium, which look similar. I bought my mother a 10" Kasumi kitchen knife several years ago. She loves it.
5I have a differing view of Flay. The article is a bit old but spot on as far as I'm concerned.
