Starting in May, guests at the Harrah's Casino Tunica in Mississippi will be able to chow down at Paula Deen's Buffet. The room will be divided into stations, including a Hoe Cake & Biscuit station and Little Jack's Corner (desserts, of course).

I was unable to find an online version of the ad from the May/June issue of Cooking With Paula Deen, which reads in part, "Get your eatin' clothes on." You'll have to take my word for it.

Top Chef 4: Kids give chefs' swearing lips a rest

Only a $10 budget to cook a healthy meal for a family of four? Ouch. And after they'd already used rice prominently in the Quickfire challenge? Brutal. I may try and do this challenge myself when I'm next on vacation. Obviously, that budget didn't include kitchen staples they were allowed to use - olive oil, salt, pepper, etc.

But I was surprised how much food these folks procured at the grocery store (at Whole Paycheck, nonetheless) for 10 measly bucks. Must have been some good sales that week ... or some reality show trickery. Didn't Padma, Gail and Oprah Chef Guy AND Tom in the kitchen AND four kids eat that food? Suspect.

Fun challenges last night, though, took things in a different direction. As someone who doesn't mind a little colorful language in the kitchen, even I was glad to see the chefs were around kids this episode so they weren't cussin' so much. Loved that one youngster who surprised Colicchio by knowing the term "sweating onions."

Anyone out there know Colicchio personally? He seems like such a cranky bully on this show, more than ever this season. I can't help but hope he's a gentler soul in real life.

We head right to the spoilers after the jump ...
