The Food Guy with Jason Schiff is a television program hosted by Jason Schiff which began airing in August 2006 as a regular segment on NCTV News at North Central High School in Indianapolis, IN. In the fall of 2008 the series moved to IUSTV at Indiana University. Since the move to IUSTV the show changed to a 30 minute format and began airing on October 29, 2008. The show features a "city tour" concept, similar to Diners Drive-ins and Dives . Schiff travels around Bloomington,IN looking for the best restaurants Bloomington, Indiana has to offer.
Show description from IUSTV "Everybody eats. The food we eat amazes - pleases the senses - while simultaneously giving us the energy we need to survive. Many find solace within their stocked refrigerators and well-equipped kitchens. However, in Bloomington, student kitchens tend to be more dilapidated than dazzling. Thus we rely on America’s food industry. As students we are thrust into a sea of options and we struggle to stay afloat among the burritos, wraps, tacos and pasta. Only the skilled can successfully navigate the Epicurean waters of Bloomington, Indiana. Very few students have the time and resources to embark on such a journey. Enter Jason Schiff. A seasoned alumnus of “The Food Guy” television program, which he began two years ago at North Central High School, Jason is no stranger to the restaurant world. He will travel from restaurant to restaurant, interviewing managers, chefs and students alike. He will sample cuisines that span the globe. He will eat everything on his plate so that, maybe, we can find the perfect meal."
