Food Party


Food Party is an American television series that airs on the Independent Film Channel in the United States.
The show is a pseudo-reality cooking show filmed on an elaborate, technicolored cardboard kitchen set. Each episode features multi-course, out-of-this-world gourmet meals cooked up by hostess Thu Tran and a cast of colorful puppets for arriving "celebrity" guests.
The show was originally produced and filmed in Cleveland for two web series based episodes, and later relocated to Brooklyn for the final web series episodes and six IFC produced shows.
In October 2010, Thu Tran announced that the show was not picked up by IFC for a third season.
