Food Glorious Food

This month I was lucky enough to work on a Papa John's pizza commercial. That's right, I was lucky to work on a three week job including one build day, one pre-light, four 13+ hours set days and a wrap day at Steiner Studios. The best thing about this job was the competitions. There was a table tennis comp, a velcro dart board, a tomato guessing comp (like the jelly beans), $5 Friday and a best apron comp. And sorry about the lack of photos but we weren't allowed to take pics on set for this job. 

Then there was the food! This was by far the most indulgent shoot I have ever been on. Not for one moment was I hungry on this shoot. For starters I am a massive fan of the breakfast on set but this set exceeded all previous expectations with specialty dinners and fancy indulgences such as pizza testing from Juliana's, Franny's, Lucali, Roberta's and Motorino. And we also had an display of delectably decadent dessert from Chef Alex Grunert at Brooklyn Fare. 

We had: Vanilla Panna Cotta with sweet pickled strawberries; Cheesecake Cream with oven roasted apricots; Chocolate Mousse with raspberry jam; Blueberry & Stroh Rum Milkshake; and Red Currant Parfait with Espresso- Cardamon Streusel. Oh, and there were two Birthday's to celebrate with red velvet cake from Buttercup Bakery.
I also had a quick escape from the city with my friend James. We escaped up to Narrowsburg and stayed at a little cottage in the middle of no where. We went for a ten mile kayak down the river which was very peaceful until the last hour when the horse flies defended upon us and started to bite! Then in the last 5mins as we finished our journey the sky opened up into a vicious storm with sheets of rain, wind and booming thunder and spectacular streaks of lightning. And within another 10minutes it had passed and the sun was shining again.

The next day we headed to The Lodge at Woodloch for a spa day. It was beautiful. Very relaxing and scenic. And our final day we drove to PA for a high ropes and zip lining course. It was actually quite challenging and a good work out. Especially, when your team mates shake and rattle the ropes to try and make you fall.
