Originally from New York Cory City, Cory Kahaney is a stand-up comedienne by profession. And a good one at that, he has appeared on several television shows, such as
The Last Comic Standing , Comedy Central and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. However, she also has formal training in cooking. Her style is what she calls MAMMA cooking – grounded in the classics of Mediterranean, Austrian, Mexican, Middle Eastern and Asia.
Cory Kahaney is a contestant on the Food Network's
The Next Food Network Star season 4. Hosted by Marc Summers, it is a reality show in search for the next gourmet masters to host their own show in the Food Network. Her favorite food is a simple helping of crusty fresh bread and butter and hates canned black olives. She considers the combination of being a comedian with formal food training her best asset coming into the television show. One of her favorite books is "The Joy of Cooking."
