Documentary: Taste of Home with Eleanor Hoh

January 15, 2019 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

Amazing how the universe heard me! I’ve wanted to be in a documentary and journalist, Lei Huang came out of nowhere.  Honored to be part of her Master thesis, Taste of Home, about how  food help people build home when they are far away from home.

Watch it and I would love to hear your feedback in comments below.

Proud of Lei, coming up with concept and following through. I think she’ll be a fantastic documentary filmmaker and storyteller!  She captured the essence of how food is a great connector when we leave home, whether it’s giving cooking classes, cooking together or eating out!
She also made a nice little video when she was shooting me make Easy, Yummy Singapore Noodles Video, you can view it here. So, of course I had to do a blog, Easy to Make Singapore Noodles! with step by step, hope you’ll try it, so good! 

So happy to attend Lei’s Commencement and now we are friends for life!
Thanks Lei and Mariana for making me look good, ha, ha!

Must be that time of year cause there are 2 TV castings:  Master Chef and Food Network Star

MASTER CHEF CASTING IN MIAMI!

OPEN CALL:
Saturday 10/20/12
Le Cordon Bleu
3221 Enterprise Way
Miramar, FL 33025

It’s so funny that Fox TV asked me to help spread the word, cause I watched the UK program on my recent trip to London. It was definitely a good watch cause  the Japanese scientist, Aki sculpted a bento box extravaganza! I can’t believe she did that in under 1 1/2 hours!  If you’ve not watched this episode, you really must.
Anyhow, Fox TV is here to cast for the USA series, so if you’ve always fancied trying a hand at being on TV and cooking infront of some judges (yup, Gordon Ramsey is one of them!), here’s your chance…
Fox’s hit series MASTER CHEF are looking for AMATEUR HOME COOKS (I think this is contradictory?) who have a love and passion for food and cooking!  Applicants do not have to be culinary trained or be a professional chef.
This is an amazing opportunity!!  Please spread the word. (please see flyer)
For details or to apply, click here.  www.masterchefcasting.com

Mother's Day 2012

May 13, 2012 By Eleanor Hoh 4 Comments

In honor of my loving mother…a photo gallery that represents the beautiful person she was.  Always elegant and did things with aplomb. Mother to 5 kids, one son and 4 girls.  She always gave each of us attention and appreciated us for who we were. She always showed us we could do anything we wanted if we put our minds to it. Even though her life was so full, she enjoyed expanding her horizon with crochet, needlepoint, ikebana and cooking. She was also a boy scout den mother, a teacher at a boy’s school and a private tuitor.  My mom did all these things so she could provide us a lifestyle that we didn’t really appreciate until later in life. What I remember best about her is her fantastic sense of humor, my friends envied me for that. Her laugh was infectious and this is how I’d like to remember my mom.
Thank you mom for teaching me how to cook.  However, I could never devote the time and effort you put into those delicious dishes. I just wish I had photos of us cooking together.
To my mom and all mothers out there, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
