NOLA? Chef John Besh tells Ian McNulty how great it was to film his new show, John Besh's Family Table, at home: "We'd cook right there in my kitchen, the way I love to cook, and then we're done and I could go upstairs to bed. I could wear shorts and clogs and no one would ever know." The first episode airs on Saturday, April 6, on WYES at 9:30 a.m. [Gambit]
