Behind-the-Scenes with TLC's Dinner Takes All

Many thanks to those Cafe Drake visitors that I've yet to meet (in person anyway) but who sent such nice emails concerning the show. There were lots of requests for the recipes prepared, and some can be found on the TLC website. I will eventually post all of them on Cafe Drake, but in the spirit of, um, moving on, there will be new features on this site uploaded first. As Cafe Drake's favorite season, Autumn, approaches, check back for loads of soup, stew and hearty rustic casseroles. In the meantime we'll be focusing on the summer largesse of fresh produce, the Holy Grail for foodies hitting the farmers' markets in August! Below you will find production pics from the Dinner Takes All shoot in June of this year. Be forewarned - we have HUNDREDS of these, so although carefully edited, selections will continue to appear on a regular basis.
