{     Dinner With The Band     }    

Having only seen a few episodes, I can already tell you with confidence that 'Dinner With The Band' is my new favorite online video series. Simply put, it's NYC chef and Tailor restauranteur Sam Mason's talk-with-your-mouth-full indie music cooking show. Mason brings guests like Fucked Up, El-P, Tokyo Police Club, Pigeon John, Matt & Kim and more to assist him in making great dishes like miso butterscotch halibut, vegetable papillotes, from-scratch lox 'n bagels, paella and more, as well as great mixed drinks and deserts. Filmed in his spacious apartment, it's always a relaxed, funny atmosphere with plenty of in-jokes, lowbrow humor, cooking tips (of course) and stories, all culminating with a live performance by the guest and a nice chow-down session. Top-top-notch production and sound polish it off to be a thoroughly addictive, enjoyable and educational viewing. Bello!
