It had to happen sooner or later: Eater gets wind of a Craigslist casting ad for a New York foodie dating show in the works from NBC. “Each episode pits real-life single men in competition with each other in the kitchen as they try to win the affection of our lovely bachelorette,” the announcement reads. Ho-boy — a date that only wants to talk about sustainably raised squab, let alone one that’s an actual chef (The hours! The ego!) is kind of our nightmare. This could only possibly be good if the guys from the Meat Hook are somehow involved. [Craiglist NY via Eater NY]
