It's our favorite time of year: the holiday season! The festive six weeks are packed with food celebrations, crazy parties, and the annual unveiling of Simon Doonan's iconic and amazingly creative windows for Barneys! This November, Simon was inspired by the food industry to craft "A Foodie Holiday," a display that showcases how fashion and food collide. It features some of our favorite Food Network celebrity chefs — from Rachael Ray to Anthony Bourdain, no culinary personality was overlooked! Plus, we chatted with Jamie Oliver, Paula Deen, Emeril Lagasse and more at the unveiling.
To celebrate, we've teamed up with Barneys and our sister site, ShopStyle, to bring you an awesome giveaway worth $5,000 in prizes! We are giving away the following must haves: a Fornasetti Box of Chocolates Plates, an Editions de Parfums Coffee Society candle, a Jonathan Adler Fondue Set, an Armand Diradourian Out to Lunch Pillow, and an Illy Francis Francis X1 Iper Espresso Machine! That's not all — we're also giving away a grand prize to one very lucky winner: a gorgeous and extravagant Valextra travel bag, handpicked by Simon Doonan himself!

Although it's easy to seed a pomegranate under water, some people, like chef Bobby Flay, believe that the water dilutes the flavor of the jewel-like seeds. To ensure maximum pomegranate flavor, here's what Flay recommends doing:

While my main focus will be on American Olympian Shalane Flanagan in tomorrow's New York City Marathon, I'll also be keeping an eye on the celeb entrants. (They're running for charity, after all!) From this picture, you can see that the race will be filled with reality star veterans, but take a look at the rest of the slideshow to see even more notables. Anthony Edwards, for one . . .

Since many of you excelled at knowing Hollywood's hottest Jennifers, I thought it'd be fun to test your knowledge of celebrities in the food realm. First up: how much do you know about Bobby Flay and Bobby Deen? Both food television personalities are masters of the grill, charming on the small screen, and, most importantly, beloved by Paula Deen. Can you stack one up against the other? Find out the difference between the two when you take this quiz.
At his demo during the New York City Wine and Food Festival, Bobby Flay told the crowd that his favorite meal to cook is brunch. Apparently he's been begging the Food Network to let him do a brunch show for years. They only relented after deciding to launch the Cooking Channel; Brunch @ Bobby's debuted two weeks ago. While I enjoy eating brunch, my favorite meal to cook is dinner. How about you?
Last week Bobby Flay announced plans to expand his fast-casual restaurant concept, Bobby's Burger Palace, to 14 more cities. He also trademarked the term "crunchify" to describe his crunchburger. Besides the crunchburger, the other specialty at Bobby's Burger Palace are the regional burgers, a burger with toppings designed around a specific city. The Burger King takes these burgers very seriously so much so that he even accused Applebee's of copying his regional burger idea. Since I've had Bobby and burgers on the brain, I put together this quiz that tests your knowledge of the regional burgers. I'll list the topping ingredients to one of Flay's burgers and you tell me what city it represents. Here we go!
