Deep End Dining on Huell Howser's show... That's Amazing! April 11 & April 27 at 730pm on KCET Ch. 28.

Huell Howser is a name, a face and definitely a voice you’d recognize if you’ve lived in Southern California in the last 20 years. His shows California's Gold and Visiting… with Huell Howser along with his other programs have been mainstays on PBS stations across California.

I’ve described Huell Howser as a grown up’s version of Mister Rogers to people who are unfamiliar with him. The man is a local legend. In fact, he’s even been spoofed and immortalized in The Simpsons — That’s when you know you’re culturally significant. Now, I’m a part of Huell’s California neighborhood and it’s quite surreal but in a good way.

On this episode of Visiting… with Huell Howser, I introduce him to halal, an Islamic dietary law. We go to a halal grocery store in the first part of the show and then to an Islamic Chinese restaurant.

It was, as Huell himself would say, an amazing experience! I’ll let Huell tell you when the show airs in his own words.

I’ve also included a snippet of the show as sort of a trailer to the episode.

Please check it out when it airs and thanks!

Good for you Eddie you mediawhore :; But, is it just me... achh... I hate to be impolite.... I'll just come out and say it... is that Huell not just a little bit thick, but really very, densely thick in the tightly fibrous sense? I feel so rude and dirty to say this on your blog... but maaan he's like... thick.
