"Chef dishes clan chowder in ‘Kennedy Kitchen’
By Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa
Sunday, April 29, 2007

Retired Kennedy family chef Neil Connolly dishes up only flattering tales of the famous clan in his new cookbook, “In the Kennedy Kitchen.”

The chef, who kept the Kennedy kitchen stocked with lobster, clam chowder and cookies from 1983 to 1995, told an audience in Hyannis the other day that Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was one of his family faves. The former first lady was “down to earth” and “considerate” of the hired help, he said.

Connolly also had kind words for Jackie O’s son, John F. Kennedy Jr., who would come into the kitchen and politely request a cookie.



“He’d ask me, ‘Could I have a cookie?’ and I’d tell him, ‘You can have the whole tray,’ Connolly said with a laugh. “He was a nice kid.”

Sen. Ted Kennedy’s favorite meal in Hyannisport is boiled lobster. And, according to Connolly, Ted didn’t mind a bit that the chef dished up that - and other kitchen secrets - in his book.

Connolly told Kennedyphiles gathered at Borders the other day that his old boss gave the former family retainer the big thumb’s up on his project.

Because the behind-the-scenes anecdotes and other tales don’t stir up a pot of trouble for the clan!

Broadway’s best

The Mutual Admiration Society convened the other night at the Boston Independent Film Festival, where the stars of Dave McLaughlin’s flick “On Broadway” made the red-carpet scene.

“Blades of Glory” funnyman Will Arnett told the Track that his “On Broadway” co-star, Joey McIntyre, has “the face of an angel.”

“Gosh, he really does,” he cracked before the screening of the locally filmed indie at the Somerville Theatre.

As for Joey, who just wrapped a tour to promote his latest album, “Talk to Me,” he said he compares Arnett to the coolest kid in school.

“I feel like a high school kid around that funny kid - and I’m just watching him every minute,” said Joey Mac. “I’m a great audience.”

But they saved their highest praise for co-star Eliza Dushku, the pride of Watertown.

“She’s just a regular Boston homey,” Arnett said. “She’s just great.” "
