The 'RHONY' star dishes on the new show she's slated to work on.
Mazels are in order!
Bestselling cookbook author and television personality Bethenny Frankel is combining her two passions at last: The Real Housewives of New York City star will be executive producing a new series called Food Porn, which will air on FYI.
Hosted by restaurateur Michael Chernow, co-owner of New York City's ultra-delicious chain hotspot The Meatball Shop, the show will explore the hottest culinary trends that are inspiring social media #foodporn posts across the nation. Chernow will meet not only the tastemakers uploading their favorite meals, but will also showcase the chefs and restaurants responsible for creating the buzzworthy dishes.
"I am excited to be a part of a series that will showcase the decadence and obsession people have with sharing their food online," Bethenny says of the new venture.
Jana Bennett, president of FYI, promises that the show will be "capturing this convergence of mouth-watering food and social trends in a unique and entertaining format.” The show has been picked up for 14 half-hour episodes.
