Hello! Hello! Back at y'all
1:09
Back at y'all. Hello, New York. You know, every party that I throw has a theme
1:21
I'm in New York, and we're going to do Deep Fried New York
1:33
I want to bring out my very first guest. He has made a huge statement in the fashion industry
1:41
He dresses every important celebrity out there. I'm so sorry to say he's never dressed me
1:48
Y'all, please give a warm welcome to Isaac Mizrahi. Isaac! Hello, darling
2:00
Oh, my gosh! But we brought this because we thought from Carnegie Deli, so
2:06
Listen, I adore New York deli food. Oh, me too. We don't get good deli food in the South
2:12
At Savannah, you don't? Not like New York once you've been to the Carnegie Deli
2:17
Right. Well, actually, we've not only brought you this sandwich from the Carnegie Deli
2:20
we also brought you hot dogs because you cannot have a show about New York without hot dogs
2:25
And that's Corey. This is Corey. That's Corey, yeah, Corey. I love Corey
2:31
I love hot dogs. Yes. Thank you so much. Corey is just about as cute as a box of chickens, isn't he
2:38
Right? Sorry. You know, I love New York street food, y'all. In fact, when I come up here, the first thing I want is a bagel
2:48
Because we don't get good bagels in Savannah, not like a New York bagel
2:52
And that's what I'm going to fix for you today. All right. I'm going to do you a deep fried bagel
2:59
Are y'all in? I've got some cream cheese. I've got some chives
3:06
I've got salmon. You refer to this as a schmear, darling, a schmear. A schmear? Yeah
3:10
This is called a schmear in New York. Oh, okay. It's like a bagel with a schmear. Okay, you just schmear it on
3:14
You schmear it on. That's right. And I've got alfalfa sprouts and dill and cucumbers and onions, and I've got capers, but we're
3:20
going to deep fry those next. All right, let's start on these bagels because there's so much
3:24
All right, all right, all right. Now, your father was in the garment industry. That's right, yes
3:27
You were born in Brooklyn, and you learned how to sew as a young man from your father
3:33
I did, from my father. Is that correct? Well, there were these big machines in the basement. And at some point when I was, I don't know, 11 or something, I kind of commandeered the basement
3:39
It was my sort of studio. So I made clothes in this basement, you know, from when I was 11
3:45
Oh, what am I supposed to do now? I'm supposed to do this? All right, now toss that in the flour. Yes, just rub it around there. Good
3:50
And then just slip it into the deep fryer. Put it in the deep fryer right away
3:55
Yes, just put it in. There you go. This is really, this could be delicious
4:01
You know, it's really, y'all, basically what we're making is like a French toast using a bagel. Right
4:07
Now, what is that? That's an egg wash? Plus, we're, yes, this is eggs and milk
4:10
Eggs and milk. But we're deep frying it. Right. Look at that. I'm going to hold that sucker down. Okay
4:15
Oh, now, wait a second. So I have to hold mine down, too. Oh, no, you don't have to. I just like to
4:19
I just... Well, there's a style. There's a style, too. So tell me, yes
4:23
All right, so I'm going to flip him over. and we're just going to cook him until he's brown. So, anyway, someone told me, Isaac, that you made a skirt when you were a young man for your mother
4:35
Right, for my mother. Right, for the Jewish high holidays. It was like, you know, Rosh Hashanah, something like that, and I made her this skirt
4:41
And I was working on it for days and days, and I was trying to keep it a surprise, you know
4:45
I was kind of... Down in the basement. Down in the basement. I, like, snuck and took her measurements and sort of, you know, took another skirt that I was sort of measuring
4:53
And then it was like this. I didn't know what darts were. I didn't know what waistbands were. I didn't know what anything was
4:57
So I made this skirt with a matching shawl. And it was pathetically ugly
5:02
It was so ugly. It was kind of a rust-colored double face number, right
5:06
And she wore it. She wore it with, like, a beautiful sweater. She wore a really good sweater with this skirt and a stole and this kind of good medallion
5:13
It was like the 70s. She wore, like, a big sort of, you know, medallion necklace. It was good
5:18
It was a good look. How sweet. It was my first kind of showing. And she wore it with great pride
5:22
Yes, she did. Well, who did you get your flair from, your taste for designing clothes
5:28
I would say from her, mostly, yes. All right, now, who is your favorite celebrity that you've ever dressed
5:34
Who would you say wears your designs better than anybody? Right. Hold that thought, because we're going to be back in just one minute
5:46
Next, y'all, take a big apple bite out of our deep-fried bagels
5:50
And later, I got a big idea on how to make Donnie Deutsch the perfect steak
6:04
Welcome back! I am here with the fashion guru of, like, the world
6:12
All right, and listen to this. I'm going to try not to screw up his name. Isaac Misorahi
6:17
Did I do it good? You did such a great job. Thank you, thank you, thank you
6:22
Isaac, I'm so thrilled that you're here. Now, before we went on break, I had asked you
6:26
who was your favorite celebrity that you've ever dressed? Right. I have dressed a lot of celebrities
6:31
I have to say the biggest thrill of my life was when I used to dress... Come on over here. I've got a fried green tomato
6:35
Okay. All right, all right, all right. I used to dress Oprah. I mean, I haven't in a while, but I used to go there
6:40
I love Oprah. And it was like this thing. Oh, my God. The queen has called. The queen, honey
6:44
You know, yeah. It was really something. I mean, going up in that elevator into that apartment and everything
6:48
it was really fabulous. I've never been to a park. And all these stylists. And I want to do clothes for her again
6:52
Oprah, call me. Wherever you are. Yeah, Oprah. Yeah, exactly. I want you to come on the show
6:59
Yeah. Wouldn't that be wonderful? All right. What have you done? What have you dipped in buttermilk this time, young lady
7:08
We have deep fried our bagels. And now I'm going to fry us. And now you're going to deep fry the tomatoes
7:13
Do you love green fried tomatoes? I do, yes. I do, too. And that's just buttermilk
7:17
We salted our tomatoes, Isaac, so that it would pull the water out of them, so they would, you know, get crispy
7:25
And we ran them through a bath of buttermilk Okay And now we just Patting them in the flour Patting them in the flour Delish And we going to put them in the deep fryer If you hold that
7:35
Should I hold this? No, darling, just hold that. All right. And then hold it up out of the thing
7:40
Got it, got it, got it. So you just want to place them in. Yeah, I'm just going to kind of place them. Uh-huh, I see
7:45
And then I drop it in. Uh-huh. Is it okay? It's not crowded
7:48
Absolutely, it's perfect. No. Now, I'm going to wash the goop off my hands. I have to tell you what I'm not good at is doing two things while something is deep frying
7:58
And if this is a show about New York, then a complaint has to come into it
8:02
Because what we do in New York a lot is complain and worry. So I worry about the deep fryer going on while we're trying to do something else
8:09
Do not be afraid. I'm right here with you. Okay, okay. So you do have challenges, even though, you know, we see these movie stars and celebrities
8:18
and we think they've got perfect bodies. But you probably do come up against challenges
8:25
Oh, sure. Are you kidding me? Like some are apples, some are pears
8:28
I'm an apple. Right. I have kind of man hips. They really are kind of slender
8:35
My butt's kind of flat. You have gorgeous hips. Come on. You're cute. So how do you fix something like that
8:39
Do you get them padded underwears? Well, you do a good job. Well, you could. Or you know what works is a nice bar eyelash
8:46
and you bring all the emphasis to here. Bring it here. Bring it here, yeah. They don't look there
8:50
They look here is what you want them to do in that case. That's a good idea. I'm getting nervous, darling
8:53
I'm nervous about the deep frying. No, no, no. I do not want you nervous. Actually, my mother has this thing
8:58
Speaking of my mother, from where I come from in Brooklyn, they have this thing
9:02
If they don't want to be on the phone with somebody, you can turn on the tap, which sounds like frying over the phone
9:07
And you say, I can't talk. I'm frying. And you just hang up. And somehow, everybody understands that you're deep frying
9:13
and that you cannot speak on the phone. You're kidding. Yeah. Turn on the tap, and through the phone, it sounds like deep frying
9:19
And does that really fly in this day and age with portable phones
9:24
Yes, it does. It does. It actually works better with portable phones because it's so much more static
9:30
Well, tell everybody about your web show. Oh, my web show, which is so great
9:36
I think that's so interesting. It's really great. We do style segments
9:40
We do talk segments. We have style roundtables. It's really kind of great
9:44
It's called WatchIsaac.com. Wonderful, wonderful. WatchIsaac.com. I would love to come to your guest
9:49
Oh, okay. You know what? I have women all the time, Isaac, because there's a lot of women with my shape
9:56
You know, we're all not a size two. es. I didn't say that
10:06
No, you didn't. That was my evil twin sister that said that. Cut, take, cut, take, cut, take
10:11
Exactly. But a lot of women have the same problems and shapes that I have
10:17
And I have had women, lots of women, come to me and say, Paula, stand back, honey
10:24
I'm fixing to deep-fry some capers and they could explode. I know. That's really..
10:28
Wait, I'll take the bullet. I'll do it. You stand back. Because I have a longer arm, I think
10:32
Yes, you do. Because they could explode. That could be very dangerous. They really could. Right
10:36
No phone calls. But how good is a deep-fried caper? Very, very good. You're absolutely right
10:40
And with bagels, we have to have it. You didn't do anything, right? You just..
10:44
How long do they take? Just a second. All right. Pull them up, baby
10:48
Pull them up, pull them up. We did it. We did it. Yes, we so did it
10:52
Can I have it nice and crispy? Yes. Just put them right there and come on down here and I'm going to put together a sandwich for you
11:01
Okay. Now, we've got cream cheese or a schmear. A schmear. As you say
11:06
Right. Now, we're just going to toss in some chives. Some chives. If you would stir that. All right
11:10
Great. And, um. Look at those capers, how beautiful they turned out
11:15
I am shocked. I am shocked that you didn't deep fry the salmon, darling
11:19
And yet, you know, something wants to be fresh on the palate, right? Yes. Something. Yes
11:23
Okay. We got a cucumber for that. Why don't I just fry the salmon, too? You have a cucumber
11:28
All right, now let's put together your bagel. All right. And you schmear because some people like lots, some people don't like much
11:36
I like a lot. I have to say I like a lot of cream cheese. Well, do it the way you would like it
11:40
How's that? Does that look like enough? Do you want me to get... Yes! All right
11:44
And now... Oh, you're a man after my own heart. That's right, honey. That's right. Here, we can use our fingers
11:48
We Southerners. We Southern Brooklynites. We like a lot of cream cheese, darling
11:53
You're from South Brooklyn. I'm from South Brooklyn. Well, you know what? Maybe I'm from South Brooklyn and just didn't know it
11:58
And you just didn't know it from a former life. Yes. Right, okay. Is that enough? That's enough
12:01
And I do love a little red onion. Purple onion, yes. I do love that. How about a little dill
12:06
Is that just too fancy for us? No, that is not too fancy. I like a little dill. We love dill
12:10
I grow this in my garden. All right, I tell you what. Let's do this
12:15
Let's put a little bit. So it holds. Yes, so our capers will stick to it
12:20
That's right. How about a fried green tomato? Okay. All right, all right, all right, all right
12:24
Okay. Bite. Mmm. Mmm. Is that wonderful or what? That is wonderful
12:32
Ooh, it's delicious. You salted that, didn't you, you little slide girl? I did
12:36
I did. I salted it to pull the water out of it
12:40
Of course. All right, now bite. Do I get to eat this first or what? No, and this is for you, my darling
12:45
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Wow. Is it good? Mm. Wow
12:52
You know what? Would you make me a dress? We would call this. Look at his face, y'all
12:58
Would you make me a dress? We would call this a taste sensation, darling. Well, actually, I have a present for you
13:02
I have a present for you. You do? Yes. It's the closest thing to a dress. Check this out, darling
13:06
Oh, well, I don't wear dresses, but, you know, I just meant something for me not to go naked
13:10
For Paula Deen. For Paula Deen. Oh, my goodness. Oh my gosh, what do you think it is
13:19
You're right is an apron. I don't want to get it greasy That's a couture apron darling. We made our sewing room the ladies made it because they love
13:36
And you can wear it on either side of reversible I love it
13:41
Y'all, when I was a teenager, I wanted a little bitty polka dot bikini
13:46
We couldn't find one anywhere, so my grandma made me one. Oh, maybe you could bring it in and wear it with the apron
13:52
And it reminds me. Honey, that bikini's long gone. Like my little waist
14:00
They are history. I am not going to make you try. But it reminds me of my swimsuit
14:04
No, I'm sorry for interrupting you. I still adore gingham. especially thinking like..
14:10
Well, of course. So, I'm so glad you liked your sandwich. It's amazing
14:14
That sandwich, that's a... That is a taste sensation. Oh, my God
14:18
It's really good, right? It's really, really good. How come y'all hadn't thought of this
14:22
I don't know. I do not know. We'll see you back in a minute
14:27
Thank you, my dear. Next, the perfect New York strip steak for the big ideas of Donnie Dewey
14:36
And later, a double-fried New York cannoli with Donald Trump Jr. You're fired, Paula
14:52
Welcome back. The theme of today party y is deep New York And the next guest coming out he is the advertising guru of our ages
15:08
This man is good looking. He's powerful. He is hotter than a $3 pistol, girls
15:17
He hosts on CNBC the big idea. Donnie Deutsch. Come on out, baby cakes
15:30
Guys. Love you. Oh, I love you, honey. Is this man hot or what
15:41
Is he hot? She's the hottest. No question about it. No, no, no
15:48
Well, welcome to New York. We are so thrilled to have you here. I'm so thrilled to be here
15:52
and I know that you don't do much cooking in the kitchen. Not much is an understatement
15:56
I'm embarrassed to say I eat out seven nights a week. You know what? You're a busy man
16:00
No, I just don't know how to cook. Well, I'm going to help you
16:05
There's a show on TV that you could tune into. And that show would be? Well, Paula's party
16:11
That's right. I'm all yours. All right. So, you know, I have to pull out the very best for you
16:21
And that's going to be a New York strip steak with a tarragon melting sauce
16:26
And we're going to start by making our sauce, Donnie. And we're going to start with one pound of butter
16:32
Okay. This is all dietetic, right? Yes. Okay, good. Well, just because we're going to make that much doesn't mean that we're going to eat that much
16:39
Because I'm going to wrap up the leftovers, put it in the freezer so that when I have steak next time
16:46
all I have to do is pull out my roll of butter from the freezer and I'm all ready
16:51
So I've got sour cream, I've got Dijon mustard, minced garlic. Now if you would add the rest of the ingredients for me, we've got spring onions, we've got
17:00
fresh tarragon, we've got parsley, we've got lemon zest, lemon juice, just dump it in, honey
17:07
Do I do it one at a time? Is there a melody to this thing? Listen, you're a brilliant man, I know that you will do this
17:15
Is there a wrist flick or something? Look at that. Hey, come on, this is good actually. You turned up the damn bowl and it fell out
17:20
Was that brilliant or what? Hey, I could do this. I didn't know cooking was so easy. Look at this. It's so easy. They pay you all this for this
17:30
They give you a show and everything How about this? Yes, but not all of it. Oh not all how much
17:42
You know let's do like that Okay, good. And let's do like that. You know, maybe a little bit more of that
17:49
All right now you got your lemon cheese lemon juice yes, right that would be that okay
17:57
Yes, just You're not gonna screw it up cuz I usually go check and that's pretty much what I do
18:06
Understand that you screwed up your first job. Yes. Yes I went to work for my I'm probably the only person American has been fired by their father
18:13
You're the smart one out of the two of us. See if you can fix it
18:18
Okay, what do I do? That's the other thing. I am completely spastic when it comes to anything handy
18:23
Well, you know, me too. All right, so we're just going to turn this on
18:28
and we're going to blend it until it's well blended. All right
18:32
Who's your daddy? Yeah, you got nothing. Look at that. Look at that
18:41
You did a fabulous job. So I really want everybody to know what you did with your life after your daddy fired you
18:50
I got, you know, my show is all about success. And I always find that the times you grow the most are the toughest times
18:56
And that's when I took stock and then went back into the agency and we built it up
19:01
And that was a great lesson. And I found consistently, whether I interview Bill Gates, any great industrialist, any successful person
19:08
you learn the most from the tough times in your life. So even when it gets tough, man, that's when you go, okay, wait, what am I going to take away from this
19:13
And you turn the failures into success. You know, I feel the same way, Donnie
19:17
I said I have certainly made my share of mistakes. But you know what
19:21
I said if you'll turn around and look back over your shoulder and learn from that mistake, it can turn into a blessing, can't it
19:30
Because we've learned so much from that. You would not be where you are today without the hardship
19:35
Without the mistakes. So embrace the hardship and say, okay, what am I taking away from this? Uh-huh. Well, we've got time
19:40
Did I screw up here? No, you have messed this up so bad, I don't think I can fix it
19:45
That's a lie, y'all. We'll be right back. Sonny Deutsch. I love you
19:52
Next, the perfect New York strip steak. And later, good old deep fried New York cannoli with Donald Trump Jr
20:08
Hey, y'all. Welcome back. I'm here with one of my favorite men
20:15
Today we're paying homage to moguls of New York, and this is Mr. New York, Donnie Deutsch
20:21
and I'm going to do you a New York strip steak with a tarragon sauce, Donnie
20:27
Would you drop our taters, our potatoes, down in the deep fryer
20:33
They've been sliced in. Just put it right in. Look. Huh? Yes
20:38
That's why I got the big bucks. Look at that. Don't try that at home
20:43
So what... I forgot to tell you, we can't afford a Venahood on this show
20:53
All right, Donnie. Yes, ma'am. I've got us some New York strips that I have marinated in olive oil, Worcestershire sauce
21:03
lemon juice, garlic, and pepper. That steak looks so good. Doesn't it look wonderful
21:09
What's your favorite cut? Actually, New York strip, what you got right here. You know what? Oh, no kidding aside
21:13
I love New York strips, too, but I also love ribeyes. Ribeyes, sometimes a little fatty
21:18
They're a little fatty. Actually, more taste, but... Yes, but that fat just flavors it
21:23
This is a good cut between a filet and, you know. So tell me, I want to talk just another little second about your dad firing you
21:30
Now, what did you do that would cause your dad to fire you? I was a jerk. I was 23
21:34
I wasn't doing my job. He had started the ad agency. and he said, get out
21:38
You're not passionate about this. Find something you're passionate about. I eventually came back, and it was a great lesson
21:44
and that's the lesson I want to share with everybody. Your daddy did you a big thing. He did. But the key to success, guys, everybody
21:50
find what you're passionate about. That's it. Every single person I've ever asked
21:54
what is it? The reason she is so successful is because this is who she is
21:58
This is what she loves, and it's not work. And if you're doing what you love, it's not work
22:02
And go back to if you were a kid. If you loved fish, open up an aquarium. That's it
22:06
I gave you no pun intended, the secret sauce. This is why you are so successful
22:11
Do what you do best. Do what you love. And do what you love. And then you'll do it the best. Yes
22:15
Right. Absolutely. I like to dance. Oh, my God. Have you been on Dancing with the Stars yet
22:24
As a matter of fact they asked me to be on Dancing with the Stars and I was I was too scared Too scared I do the white man overlet Look I do the white girls
22:35
They're going to cancel you after this. They're going to cancel your show just based on this
22:42
All right. This looks good. Doesn't this look good? Oh, I forgot to ask you, what temperature do you like your meat
22:48
Medium. Real medium. Medium. Okay, so you like a pink center. How do I know when these are done, by the way
22:53
If you like them crispy, then that's the way you do it. Everybody likes them crispy, no
22:58
What's that? That's what you go by. Okay. Your tongue, your palate, your taste. Okay
23:02
Just because you like them burnt doesn't mean I do that. I guess that means it's time to take them out
23:09
Okay, you just put them on here? Yes. Okay. Well, you kind of give them a shake
23:13
Get the oil out. All right. That looks good. Yeah, we don't want to lose that one because that's the kind you like
23:18
That's a good one. Right. What is the proper etiquette when you're cooking as putting your hands in and eating
23:23
Like what I just did, is that wrong? To me, it's not. Now, some people, I'm going to put on my house seasoning
23:29
It may be wrong to some people, but you know what? As a kid, I was allowed to eat out of the bowls
23:36
My mother and daddy wouldn't fuss if I leaned over and did like that
23:41
And put it back in the bowl. That was good. Oh, there's so much I wanted to
23:47
How long did you leave it on one side? How long do you know? I never know how to... It depends on how much heat you have
23:53
It depends on how you like your steak. If I like it medium
23:57
Now, what temperature is this at? Well, I don't know, honey. See, it's that fire right there
24:02
Okay. So, look here. It looks like our pan was hotter on this end than on that end
24:12
You can see that piece is not done enough for you. And to get you medium, you'd probably need six to eight minutes
24:19
Okay. And it also depends on the thickness of your meat. Do I cut it open to see how it's doing
24:25
If you want to, but you know what? Because otherwise you don't know what's going on here. I love doing the touch. What's that
24:29
The touch method. See, that's kind of rare right there. How do you know from a touch that it's rare
24:35
Well, the way it feels. Oh, so if it's too, can I do this? Yes, do it
24:39
I washed my hands, I promise. So that's rare. You can see. All right, this is a good judge
24:44
If you'll make a fist, you're going to have to put that potato chip down
24:51
And don't make a real tight fist. Hello. My name is Donnie
24:57
My name is Paula, and I love you. So anyway, feel my little fat pocket right there
25:07
Okay, right. See how it's soft? Yeah. You touch it, that's rare
25:11
Okay. All right, now I'm going to tighten my fist a little bit more. That's medium rare
25:16
All right, now I'm going to tighten it a little bit more. That's medium
25:20
Wow, that's very cool. Now, I'm really going to tighten it. Okay. That's well done
25:25
Well done. Interesting. Interesting. So, other than that, you can use a meat thermometer
25:31
All right, look out here, Donnie. Idiot. Look, I'm such an idiot
25:38
No, I am. No, I'm the idiot. Please, I really am the idiot
25:41
This looks so good. Because I forgot to cook our onions. That was my fault. Yes, it was. You distracted me. I put my hands in there
25:50
All right. These onions were just rolled in flour, y'all. I've got to swap out for our steak
25:57
I want you to have the best steak. All right. Look up there. And some of your potatoes that you cooked
26:03
Right. I'm going to reach over here and get the burned ones because I know that's what you like
26:07
Getting a nice facial. I like how we are. Right. You know, I said technically I should look like I'm 100
26:15
Okay. But I think the pots in the kitchen really helped. All the steam
26:19
Okay. All right, now I'm going to take a little butter. Oh, just a little
26:24
A little melting sauce. Just a little. Mm-hmm. Do I wait for it to melt or I just kind of..
26:27
Well, you know, it may not melt because I'm using a swap-out steak. Okay. So here we go
26:33
I'm going to take a hot one. Okay. Oh, is this a cold one? That one's cold
26:39
Let me see. Mm. Wow. Wait, let's see. Oh, that's a real good medium, Donnie
26:47
Wow. All right, look here. That is actually delicious. Oh, man, look at that
26:51
I'm going to eat yours. I want you to eat mine. Oh, that's perfect, too
26:56
Yeah, wow, good job. Do you like the fat? Yeah, I kind of like the fat
27:00
I love the fat. This is good, man. Look at this. Wow
27:06
Uh-oh, that's too big a butter. Oh, man. That is a fantastic steak
27:12
This is amazing. The best steak for the best man here in New York City
27:17
Don't go anywhere. Fabulous meat. Up next, a double fried New York cannoli for Donald Trump Jr., y'all
27:37
Welcome back. The theme of today's party, y'all, is deep-fried New York
27:45
Now, to pull this off, I'm having New York moguls that really, really, really say New York
27:54
Well, my next guest, his last name not only says New York
28:00
it screams it. Y'all, please put your hands together and welcome Donald Trump Jr
28:07
Come on out, Donald. Hi, Paul. How are you? I'm fine. How are you
28:16
Not too bad. Not too bad. I don't mind the lipstick as long as it's on camera. So my wife won't, you know, I won't get in a little bit of trouble
28:21
You know, now, do you go by Don, Donnie, Donald? Most people call me Don
28:26
Most people call you Don. Yeah. And they call your daddy Donald, don't they
28:31
Yes, or Sir. Or Sir? And I'm so glad you're here today
28:37
It's good to be here. I've heard some wonderful things about you. But you know what they didn't emphasize to me
28:42
What's that? How damn handsome you are. Well, I appreciate that. Thank you
28:46
Oh, my gosh. We got to cook, Ron. We got to cook, OK. You know, I'm bringing the south to New York
28:52
And so we're going to have a little southern, a little New York. So I'm going to be deep frying you, honey, some cannolis
28:59
Oh, that sounds good. That sounds scary, too. No, it's not scary
29:03
I understand that your wife, who is a new mother, they are the parents of a 10-month-old, beautiful little girl, I understand
29:10
She's amazing. And you do a lot of the cooking in your house
29:14
I do, actually. As a kid, I grew up with parents who had chefs
29:18
Oh, my goodness. Don. I know. I did pretty good, right? I'm telling you, she's got, like, your hair
29:25
She does. By the way, she came out with hair that much. It's not from my father's side, though
29:30
It can't be. Right? No. It's physically impossible, so that must be from the mother
29:35
She came out with a full head of hair. I wasn't going to mention it when you walked out, but you definitely don't have your father's hair
29:41
Well, you have beautiful hair. Well, thank you very much. So I understand that your wife has got her hands full
29:46
so you do a lot of the cooking. And she's requested that you get more into baking
29:52
Now, tell everybody, this young man cooks, y'all. I do. You know, I had the fortune of growing up in a pretty
29:59
Good households. My parents always had chefs around, but when I was a kid, I hated the notion of really people working for me because I was this big and they were this big and it didn't seem right
30:08
Kind of intimidating. I used to watch the chefs make food for my parents and then I'd make it myself
30:14
So I learned at a really young age how to cook. The only thing I never focused on was really baking or desserts
30:18
So this is going to be a new experience for me. Do you like desserts? You know, I do
30:22
Do you have a sweet tooth? I do. I try to avoid them, though, because ever since I got turned 30, it's not so easy to keep, you know
30:28
You're 30? I am. I'm old. I know. What are you doing taking up our airspace
30:37
So old. Now, I have taken some ricotta cheese and some sweetened fresh whipped cream
30:45
Now, you fold those in for me. Just gently fold them in together
30:50
Very gently? Yes, because you want to be careful because in whipped cream we can deflate it. Yes
30:55
So we don't want to do that. Now, I'm going to sprinkle in some cinnamon
31:00
Mmm. Smell that. Do you dress like this every day? Yeah, it's not great for cooking
31:07
But, you know, I come from work and then I go back to work and it's just easier than changing
31:10
Well, you look so handsome. Well, thank you. And that purple is amazing on you
31:14
Thank you. You know, it takes a real man to pull off purple. You know what? It does
31:19
Purples and pinks. But you know what? I love seeing guys in these kind of colors because it means you're comfortable in your skin and who you are
31:27
And to me, that has a great sex appeal. That's very appealing
31:31
Yes. We'll talk later. That's coming from an old lady. All right
31:37
So we're going to fold this in together, and we're going to add. It smells like amaretto
31:42
You're exactly correct. We're going to add some amaretto, and we're going to use just a store-bought cannoli, y'all
31:50
I don't know where you'd find them in the grocery store. It could be in the bread section or the cookie section
31:56
But, you know, take it easy on yourself and just buy the store-bots because you're quite delicious
32:02
Perfect. All right. So we've got some already mixed up done. Excellent
32:06
And we're going to fold in these chopped pistachios. I love that
32:11
All right. Now we're going to take our cannolis. All right. You take you a cannoli
32:17
Yes, I washed my hands. And this is your bag. All right. Now grab it up here
32:21
You don't want to grab it in the middle because it'll squirt out the top on you
32:26
Perfect. So just fill up your cannoli. That looks pretty good. Uh-huh
32:32
Might be better than mine. I'm going to go back to the other end
32:35
Yeah. Perfect. Now, we're going to put these in the freezer, Don. Okay. And we're going to fill these up
32:40
We're going to put them in the freezer, let them get nice and solid hard for four hours
32:46
Uh-huh. And you don't worry about it. I'm not going to keep you from your office for four hours
32:51
I appreciate that. I've got some swap outs. And when we come back we going to talk about the apprentice y So don go anywhere I here with Donald Trump Jr What a man Coming up Don Jr is rolling up his sleeves
33:08
for some good old deep fried New York cannoli. If I take more off, it's gonna start costing people, okay
33:21
Welcome back, everybody. Today we're frying up New York City. And look at this beautiful man that's with me here, Donald Trump Jr
33:34
Oh, I just saw, when you looked at me like that, Don, I saw a great deal of your daddy
33:41
Yeah, I think a good mix. Because, you know, at first sight, I didn't think you looked like your father
33:46
But then there came that look, and it was there. As long as it's not that look, right
33:51
As long as it's not that look. As long as you don't get that one, you're good. As long as it's not
33:55
You're fired, Paula. As long as it's not that look. All right
34:00
So we've got our cannolis that we have frozen solid for like four hours, y'all
34:05
And we're going to make a batter to dip our cannolis in. And I would love for you to start by getting comfortable, honey
34:13
Great time of day. Take off that coat. Where do I put this? I don't know. We'll ask one of these pretty girls to hold it
34:18
Listen, if I take more off, it's going to start costing people, OK? All right, we're just going to loosen this just a little bit
34:26
All right, take that top button. We're going to undo that top button. I like that. Yes, I like that, too
34:31
All right, we're going to have to stop this pretty soon. I don't think this is going to go on Food Network
34:35
Hey! That was pretty hot. I was just kidding you. You don't have to be
34:45
It's okay, you know. Oh, I like this boy. Just kidding, baby, I love you very much
34:49
Look, one of our guests is going... He didn't know what he signed up for
34:56
No, he didn't. All right, now come here. We're going to get you a little bit more comfortable. And I want you to talk to me about the apprentice
35:02
Okay. What's it like working with your dad and your sister? Well, it's been a lot of fun, actually
35:06
Very different dynamic than the regular, I think, work world where we're building buildings. Yeah, yeah
35:11
And we're able to have a little fun with it. I think I wanted to avoid it initially when we first started filming because, you know
35:16
I build buildings and, you know, there's a little bit of a difference. but it really became a lot of fun, and especially this season
35:21
Oh, that's all right. You're high enough. Okay. You good? It added a whole new element
35:26
It was a lot of fun. Yes. It's a lot of fun. You know, I understand. All right, now, we're going to make a batter for this
35:32
You're going to blow your wife away when you make her these. Now, we've got some flour, we've got milk, we've got a couple of eggs, and we've got some sugar
35:39
Perfect. So if you would just dump all that together, Don. So, on The Apprentice, you are there as an advisor to your father, is that correct
35:50
My sister and I basically sit on either side of him in the boardroom and really, you know, try to help him
35:55
He doesn need really any business advice He done pretty well for himself on his own But you know I think it gets relatively heated in there So to give him a little you know added there and maybe create a little controversy amongst the contestants if we can
36:07
The show really is, there's no acting going on here. Is that correct
36:11
No, you know, and he's such a... I mean, it's really a reality. It's all there. I mean, it's really him. And people say, oh, you're such a good actor
36:17
I'm like, no, that's pretty much what I deal with every day when I'm in the boardroom on the other side of the table
36:22
Is your father hard to work for? No, you know, he's a very fair guy, but he's also a very tough business guy
36:27
So, you know, I get it. He wouldn't have us doing something in the company if someone could be doing a better job
36:32
because, you know, he's a business guy first and foremost, and, you know, there are no subsidies in his world
36:37
And I understand that, which I think this is so admirable, you don't want to come in on your daddy's coattail
36:45
It's important to you that you make your own mark. It's really the way we were brought up
36:49
You know, we really had to earn for ourselves, and we weren't spoiled in a financial sense
36:53
I mean, we've got great educations, well-traveled, cultured, and these kind of things. So we've got the best of perhaps being spoiled without, you know, the areas where it can be detrimental
37:01
When you start kind of getting unlimited cash flow to do whatever you want, it doesn't usually work out that well
37:05
Well, that's wonderful. That's to be admired. What is, okay, I think that's pretty good, Don
37:12
That looks smooth. Yeah. And our deep fryer should be ready. Perfect
37:15
So all we have to do is take our cannolis and dip them in the batter, and then we're going to put them down into our deep fryer
37:23
You want to use this so your hands won't get messed up? I think so. I think that'll do
37:27
Although I do have a sink down there if you should need it. So what is the greatest lesson maybe that your daddy taught you
37:35
Well, I think, you know, one of the most important things he always says is just love what you do. You love what you do
37:39
It makes it better. I mean, when you go into work and you're actually excited to go into work, it's better than saying, oh, God, I can't believe it's Monday
37:44
We have five more days of this crap, and I've got to put up with it. That's no fun
37:48
You'll never succeed. It's terrible. Are we going in? Yes, go in. I think one of the greatest pleasures in life is having a job that you love
37:57
Correct. You know, I couldn't wait to come back to work Monday. I could not wait
38:00
I had missed it for two days. My wife doesn't love it when I say it's Saturday and I'm going to the office for a few hours
38:05
because now the rules have changed with the baby. Absolutely they've changed
38:10
It definitely is a pleasure. My son is a new father. Oh, congratulations
38:14
Thank you. He's precious. And the rules do change. Yeah. Okay. This doesn't look good for our cholesterol levels, huh
38:23
You know what? We're turning a blind eye to that today, honey. We're taking a day off the low-carb thing today
38:29
A day off the low-carb thing. Tell me about your restaurant choices
38:35
What is your favorite restaurant that you like to go to here in New York? You know, New York has so many, as you know
38:40
It's such a great... That's what's mind-boggling. I travel all over the world for business. How do you decide
38:44
And it has all of that. But you know what? There's days where you feel like fancy, but honestly..
38:48
Bread, honey. A lot of times I like to just get away. Get out of the French restaurants that you go
38:52
when you have to order a pizza afterwards. Maybe just go to McDonald's. A little Big Mac every once in a while I love McDonald I love McDonald A number two please Hold the ketchup extra mayonnaise That works I love it I like the ketchup because in the Trump family we go pretty much ketchup to meat is a one ratio
39:11
Oh, really? There is no shortage of ketchup. So when are you going to have your next child or your wife
39:17
Yeah. You know, I don't know. She wants five, so I'm in trouble. And I have very little to say in the matter
39:22
So, you know, she has a lot of control in that area. Yes. For obvious reasons
39:27
Yes. But we won't go there. And I'm not going to elaborate there. We won't go there, yeah
39:32
All right, now see how quickly we got these fried done. That was pretty fast. Yeah, it didn't take for a second
39:36
If you go too long, you probably do something to the cream. Well, actually, it would melt on us
39:40
It would just melt it and go. So we have to fry them pretty fast, like 350 degrees
39:44
So I'm going to put you a cannoli. Perfect. I'm going to get that pretty one
39:49
And let's see what I'm going to do. I think I'm going to dip him in chocolate
39:53
Wow. Just that tip. kind of like a tease, you know? Okay
40:01
All right. And then we're going to take some pistachios. Do a little double dip
40:06
And just do a little double dip. Perfect. So here I am in New York City
40:13
Yes. Cooking for the Don Jr. That works. And I hope he likes it
40:18
Okay, we're going in. That is trouble. Is it trouble? Now I can't make this for my wife
40:28
You look like you are just loaded with cavities. Smile for the camera
40:37
Do you have a surprise for me? I do. It looks like a little piece of New York real estate
40:44
It does? From the people that collect cakes for you. Yes. Oh my
40:50
Yeah. The Empire State Building, y'all. Bob! Did you make that, Bob? No
41:03
People like Colette's cake. Don. And it's not Trump International. I should have specified which building we wanted, but I guess everyone recognizes this
41:10
building in New York City. You know what? And we just own it, so it's OK. I will take the Empire State Building, honey
41:15
You'll take that? OK. Listen, thank you so much for coming and being a guest
41:19
I really appreciate it. Oh, before we go, let me kind of clean you up
41:23
so you can smile at the camera and tell everybody that we always, always
41:31
send best dishes and love from New York City to your kitchen
41:36
Thank you, Donald Trump. Thank you very much. Thank you. You got a little bit too, by the way
41:42
All right. See you at the next party. Thank you
