The shaved head makes him look SO much like Christian Bale

I hope one day to be as happy as Antoni talking about silverware

When he holds the banana and says "it just feels really good when you're squeezing it" 👀👀👀

I remember watching Julia Child and saying to myself that I'll never make a recipe that requires buying an expensive one use item such as a fish poacher. BUT, yours is a lovely copper, and thus qualifies as an art object.

love the basic items and utensil recommendations. there’s so much crap out there when you buy the most essential things to whatever task you’re doing and people don’t know what kind of problem they’re going to present until it comes up and the cycle of buying garbage that doesn’t work continues. it’s amazing how you can’t buy a pan or a spatula without there being something wrong with it’s basic function. especially weird as we solved alot of those problems ages ago, maybe even hundreds or thousands of years ago in some cases.

Antoni is the cutest with his lil buzz cut and Neon.

How mad is Andy Baraghani BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

[ingnorancebliss]

The way he grip the stress banana tho 🥵

[rebeccacartier]

Can we talk about that marble backsplash that goes all the way up half of the wall 😳

[karenkaren]

Like the buzz cut. I had my already very short hair cut even shorter about a month ago, so I don’t have to deal with it for awhile. Stay safe and well everyone!

[robbierose]

Love the Montreal shout outs! And the sneaky peek of the Joe Beef Cook books!

#11 is #1. :) My 19 year old! chihuahua loves to join me in the kitchen and watch while waiting for something good to hit the floor!

[lloyd]

I think he has a copy of his 2nd book in his kitchen omg exciting can't wait to read

[brettjackson]

And the Puiforcat flatware is a prime example of why we do not advise patients to use their actual teaspoons and tablespoons to measure liquid medications. They are all different and result in a variety of unreliable doses. Ask your pharmacist for a proper measuring device.

250.00 for an oyster knife . It’s beautiful but in my dreams only

[Tonkaman]

Okay I will be that guy...He lets his friends squeeze his banana....LOL. Cool items in the kitchen.

[megsacting]

The squishy bananas just seems something that seams like an item that Antoni would bought that.

[curtisrobinson]

The RSVP colander, and the Rachel Ray Lazy spoon and ladle, are personal favorites.

That's me, big spender.
