Cat Cora is the first female American Iron Chef. In addition to being a television personality, she is also an executive chef, philantrophist, lesbian, mother and one sexy woman. She is an out and proud lesbian who lives with her partner Jennifer and their sons Zoran and Caje.
…
I love to watch her cook.
Hey…Remember her sous chef?
None other than Elizabeth Falkner…yep, she’s a lesbian also.
…
Am I making you hungry for more?
Here’s part of the Cat Cora article on After Ellen:
Food Network star Cat Cora, 40, is all of these things, but it is the latter descriptor that still comes as a surprise to many of her fans. Although the celebrated chef has mentioned her partner in interviews since early 2005, she has kept a fairly low profile about it, often simply referring to Jennifer, 36, as “my partner” or “better half,” or using the nonspecific term “we.”
…But in the Nov. 19th issue of People magazine, Cat posed with Jennifer and their two sons in front of a Thanksgiving dinner spread, making her sexual orientation known to millions of Americans. (Cat Cora Turns Up The Heat)
And here’s an excerpt from gay.com’s Top Lesbian Chefs on Elizabeth Falkner:
James Beard-nominated Elizabeth Faulkner, of TV and cruiseship fame, (wo)mans this hip patisserie/restaurant/bar (www.citizencake.com) — a showcase for sugar explosions, avant-garde pastry and caramelized teeter totters. Specializing in architecturally- and pop culturally-inspired desserts, this art school graduate wants you to enjoy fabulous entrĂ©es but leave room for a hefty portion of Retro Tropical Shag or Mocha Mi Su — a couple of her architecturally ambitious and sumptuously delicious cakes.

I saw these 2 battle it out the other night in kitchen stadium. It was pretty cool. Cat won by like 1 point. :o)
hostess: I haven’t seen them compete against each other…I’ll have to keep an eye out for that episode!
Hi,
I didn’t know IronChef Cora was a lesbian. Happy for her! I was googling Chef Elizabeth Faulkner and came upon your site… As I write this I’m watching it once again, I love Iron Chef…
She’s a very respectable woman. She carries herself very confidently which any competitor needs but carries a very feminine quality that hasn’t been seen on Iron Chef before.
my gf is a culinary arts student and i think that women like these too give her the extra edge she needs..she wants to be just as successful as they are and just as down to earth….these 2 women have the right kind of success…without losing the awesomeness behind them
I really felt there was a lot of sexual tension, or at least, a past romantic history when I saw these two the other day on television. I don’t normally watch TV but Chef Faulkner had me hooked that day! I couldn’t keep my eyes off her!
Sad. And sick. So sorry. Your children will be so conficted.
I have no feeling for you, but I am so sorry for your cildren.
Sad. So sorry. I have no feelings for you but your children came into this world without any choice. What a sad world you offered them. One with a sad family. Wait till these children try to get married. Do you think the average person is going to say ” Oh well, they had two Mommies. Nothing strange about that. Hey, let’s get together for dinner and you and your parents can meet my folks.” So will girls think they are marrying straights or gays; will guys think they are marrying striaghts or gays? Who knows? Will they know? What a sad situation to put innocent people into.
I am so very happy for her happiness. To me, that’s all that matters. And I LOVE how she cooks. She is the absolute BEST!
I love Iron Chef, and Cat is one of my favorites. I wish her and her family the very best.
I loved her before I found out, and I love her still now. She’s an awesome chef and I’m so glad she has a wonderful family.
