simply great! ...Continue »
How can anyone classify her as a spoiled brat! Can somebody explain it to me please?! I love watching her tv shows and hopefully I can buy her books!I just love her accent in saying some words, it maybe because she's partly Italian. Whenever I watch her show, she sort of makes me want to cook what she cooked, if you know what I mean.Giada makes cooking special and simple. She looks so friendly on TV, I like the way she smiles.And I think she likes to eat too, because she always takes a bite of what she cooked/prepared. I think Giada de Laurentiis is a special person. More power Giada.

Giada De Laurentiis truly is a wonder. I cannot begin to fathom how hard it was to move to Paris and attend Le Courdon Bleu. She did not speak a word of French and had to adapt to the way of life. Several month later Giada had learned many French food terms and had graduated from Le Courdon Bleu. Giada worked very had when she returned to the United States. For a while she cooked for individual families, then cooking for cafes, after a while she started her own catering company. Finally Giada was convinced to send in a tape of her cooking to the Food Network. They loved her. Now Giada has one cooking show, Everyday Italian, and she just started another about wordclass events and catering. She is a personal favorite!

Food TV does not use Giada nearly enough ...Continue »
Besides being an 11 in the area of looks, Giada has a very delightful personality and is one of a few female stars of Food TV that is really a pleasure to watch.
Food TV has only recently begun to realize the star potential Giada has and finally gave her a chance to expand into new areas. Giada is by far the best looking and most talented (in the kitchen) Food TV has ever had.
I like the fact that Giada does not flaunt her families name and try build her success off it. the recipes I have tried of hers is fantastic and proves she takes her cooking seriously.
