Fitz is a professional pot stirrer. The u-boat thing was priceless until it went way too far South.

The velvet voice of Tom Fitzmorris broadcasting with a bazillion megahertz today from the Cool Water Ranch. Who's on the pink phone?

I called in one time when he was ranting about how some place had rice that was all split and didn't look like intact grains. It was obvious he preferred the parboiled rice that most restaurants use.
Restaurants have to cop out because they have to hold rice dishes for long times without it getting overcooked and mushy. You just can't cook most rice dishes to order and parboiled rice keeps better.
When I called, I informed him that jambalaya cookoffs, notably the Gonzales Jambalaya Festival use the popping of the rice as one of the judging criteria, he couldn't believe it.

I also called him out in a comment to one of recipes that he said was his version of "Manuel's Hot Tamales". Only trouble is, his recipe didn't contain ANY chili powder.
He replied via email that he didn't like chili powder so he didn't include it. Please tell me how you can have tamales, much less ones you call Manuel's Clones, without chili powder.

I like how in his reviews he so often mentions how the staff either did or did not recognize him (please recognize me), or realize that he is a local rather than a tourist (so obvious by the fact that I knew blah, blah).
I do get a kick out of his site. Take with grains of salt.

Part of me is convinced he and Peter King were separated at birth. They have the same reporting style and weird social tics.
Or they could both have aspbergers

Not as much as when he says "bisstro" instead of "beestro."
Technically that's correct. Way back (before Katrina), he said it's from the Russian word for "quickly".

He came and talked to my class when I was in 4th grade.

Same here. He's doing one on the 20th at Vincent's uptown.

What's wrong with saying "poor boy"? I've got several older family members from the parish that still say that (at least ambiguously).

It's more about how he says it.

it's like he wants you to know he's above saying 'po boy'

Here's an idea, why don't you call his show today and ask him about it. Please report back.
