Rachael Ray ... A Review

Rachael RayRachael Ray ... who doesn't know that name? If you haven't at least hear it in some way you probably don't watch the Food Network at all or are not a Foodie! I have watched the Food Network I think since it has been on and been a Foodie since I was three. Seriously, ask my mom if you know her ... she caught my dad feeding my oysters and tamales when I was just three years old. And I have been cleaning brains and started making brain sandwiches right about at the age with my Grandma. I've owned my own Pizza restaurant ... worked in every area of the restaurant there is and in almost every kind of restaurant. There is not much I will not taste at least once... unless it contains ... pickles, dill or cucumbers and that is because I am allergic to those things.

I am turning my eight year old into a Foodie slowly and she keeps telling me she wants to be a Chef when she grows up. Let's up I can discourage that as I know the restaurant business all to well. She loves in the mean time to watch all the Kids Cooking Contest shows and Rachael Ray's is one of them!

I have to say though right now I am a little disappointed in R.R. I have been eye balling some of her Cooking ware and it is pretty darn price, but oh so pretty. Well, the other day Amazon had a FLASH SALE on a Au-Gratin Ware piece and I thought cool ... I am gonna try it ... that is pretty and will make a decorative piece as well!

First rule of thumb when ordering from Amazon: Read the SIZES carefully! if in doubt ... take out your ruler! Second rule of thumb when ordering from Amazon: Read Reviews! Duh ... especially when you are a Reviewer!!!!

I did neither of these because it was a FLASH SALE and I got in a hurry ... Luckily the sale was for $7.99 if I had paid $15.80 ... or $20.00 for this dish it would have gone back!

To me an Au-Gratin dish is a dish for more then one person. Not a single serve dish. Really ... who serves someone a Au-Gratin order of potatoes in a single dish? Oh ... maybe Rachael! Sorry ... RR I am not ditching on you, but I don't have the time or money for this kind of thing!

Oh well, I guess this was my fault for not reading better. I now I have a cut little Au-Gratin single dish for someone.




RATING: One Star

I DID NOT purchase this in return for a fair and honest review ... this was purchased as a FLASH SALE ITEM that is available to everyone and does not require any type of review or feedback of any type. I do a Review in order to help others to purchase quality items!
 
If you are looking for a SINGLE SERVE AU-GRATIN DISH you can find it here:

http://www.amazon.com/Rachael-Ray-Cucina-Stoneware-12-Ounce/dp/B00J4NLMP6?ie=UTF8&keywords=Rachael%20Ray%20Cucina%20Stoneware%2012-Ounce%20Oval%20Au%20Gratin%2C%20Agave%20Blue&qid=1461516356&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1


These are the epic FAIL pictures ... it does not hold 12 ounces of LIQUID and in SOLIDS ... you really have to pack it down!!!!



Here is 12 ounces of water  measure out .... as you can see if you tried to do anything with this you would have a mess. Not that you would use plain water in this bowl, but perhaps soup? Twelve ounces of soup is still not going to go in here!
