Native New Yorkers, Dan Smith and Steve McDonagh (aka The Hearty Boys) have proudly made Chicago their home base for many years with tremendous success. Before winning their chance the host their own television show, Party Line, on Food Network, they were already well-established local caterers and Halsted Street restaurateurs. Their fast-paced lives has recently become even fuller with the release of their first cookbook, Talk With Your Mouth Full (Stewart, Tabori & Chang), the opening of a unique, first-of-its-kind food demo/party studio in Chicago called HBTV.
