We recently told you about upcoming TV programs featuring street food.  Well, here’s another one:

It looks like Olympic figure skating champion Brian Boitano will be taping an upcoming episode of his Food Network series, What Would Brian Boitano Make? at a cheese cart in San Francisco’s Union Square this Saturday afternoon from 2-5pm.  Boitano will be making various cheese-laden dishes, and will reportedly hit Precita Park the next day to sample street food from local vendors.  If you’re in the area, you can check the SF Cart Project street food locator that morning for details.

With the Winter Olympics coming up in a couple of weeks from Vancouver, this looks like a good idea from the Food Network – linking their network, the Winter Olympics, and the newly “hot” cuisine of street food.

Does this look interesting to you, or is it just another example of a show trying to be “hip”?
