What to Expect in Season 7
In the season premiere, Garten prepares a Breakfast Panna Cotta for Fey, who reveals personal anecdotes and shares stories about her experiences on the road with her best friend, Amy Poehler. The episode culminates in a collaborative cooking session, where Fey and Garten create a delightful dinner featuring Greek Lemon Potatoes and Chicken Thighs with Creamy Mustard Sauce.
Later episodes will showcase Baranski, who will join Garten to make Maple-Oatmeal Scones, while Perlman will explore a Potato Galette with Smoked Salmon. Roseberry will contribute to the culinary lineup with a Tri-Berry Ricotta Cake.
Since its debut in 2022, “Be My Guest” has allowed Garten to broaden her appeal beyond her Food Network roots, emerging as a prominent lifestyle and entertainment figure. The show’s format merges cooking demonstrations with in-depth interviews, drawing parallels to popular long-form celebrity conversation programs like “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction” and “Hot Ones.” This unique approach has positioned Garten as a culturally relevant interviewer, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Hamptons.
As anticipation builds for the return of “Be My Guest,” fans can look forward to a season filled with culinary creativity and heartfelt discussions with some of the entertainment industry’s most notable figures.
