Awww, Sea Bass Again?

Kelen Barr '00 is the latest Union student to star in Carmine's Table, a combination talk and cooking show airing this week on local cable television.

She was one of several students from area colleges who met for a lighthearted show on dorm food with chef and host Carmine Spiro, who prepared sea bass in a pouch, an entrée he said students could prepare in their dorm rooms.

"I've never cooked in my life," Barr told the host at one point.

"Now that you see how easy it is, do you think that will change?" Spiro asked.

"No," Barr replied.

Besides tasting the fare, Barr and students from Siena and the College of Saint Rose talked about how they chose their respective colleges.

Mark Will '99 and Prof. James Underwood were guests of the show in August prior to the C-SPAN production at Union on President Chester Arthur. On the menu for that show was "Mugwump in a Hole," a veal dish that was a favorite of Arthur's.

The show airs weekdays at 12:30 and 7 p.m., and weekends at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Cable Channel 19 (Channel 9 in Albany, Troy and Saratoga).
