Alton Brown - "He's Just Here for the Clothes"

Robby, Alton Brown and Greg
at Miller Brothers

Alton Brown, chef and host of Good Eats on the Food Network, took time out of his busy schedule to visit Miller Brothers to do some shopping. He loves the Colonel Littleton messenger bag he found here.

Alton was in for a fitting in preparation for his Good Eats Live Anniversary Show being held at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre this Saturday. Good Eats is celebrating ten years and over 200 episodes. Alton not only writes and produces the shows but also stars in each offbeat episode.

Alton likes to dress in character and enlisted the help of one of Miller Brothers' tailors to fit his Colonel suit. A white-clad Southern gentleman based on Colonel Sanders, Colonel Bob Boatwright demonstrates traditional Southern recipes such as mint juleps and upside-down cake.

To see more of Alton Brown, check out his website www.altonbrown.com or Good Eats on the Food Network www.foodnetwork.com/alton-brown. The show is smart and entertaining, much like Alton himself.
