Ina Garten, chef and host of the Emmy Award-winning show “Be My Guest,” has signed a new, exclusive multi-year deal with Food Network, as announced by Betsy Ayala, Head of Content, Food, Warner Bros. Discovery.
The deal will see Garten continue to invite guests to her East Hampton home, cooking and conversing with a range of notable figures. The next season, set to air in the fall, will include chef Bobby Flay, actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and late-night host Stephen Colbert and Evie McGee Colbert.
“The most coveted invitation is to Ina’s home,” said Ayala. “She has the ability to feed both the mind and body with thoughtful conversations and delicious recipes.” Ayala’s enthusiasm for the partnership is evident, and she expresses her thrill at continuing the relationship with Garten and bringing new episodes to her devoted audience.
Garten’s show has previously featured a diverse range of guests, including Emily Blunt, Jennifer Garner, Nathan Lane, Laura Linney, and astronaut Nicole Mann. The series offers a unique blend of culinary expertise and engaging conversations, with Garten’s ability to create memorable experiences for both her guests and viewers well to the fore.
In addition to her work on “Be My Guest,” Garten is also a New York Times bestselling cookbook author, with her latest book, “Go-To Dinners,” released in October 2022. She will be releasing a memoir, “Be Ready When the Luck Happens,” in October of this year.
