After our visit to the "Undercovers" set visit, we introduced you to Mekia Cox. She plays Lizzy Gilliam, Samantha Bloom's (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) sister and her right hand gal in the kitchen of Bloom Catering - Samantha and Steven's (Boris Kodjoe) real business aside from their spy activities.
Of course, Cox plays a caterer on the show and she's not actually trained in the culinary arts.
"I may not be the greatest at [cooking], but I'm learning," Cox tells Zap2it. "But, it's okay, because Lizzie isn't the greatest chef either, but she's learning. So, we're learning together."
That's where the show's food stylists come in. Nancy Goodman Iland and Lisa Robinson make the cast look like caterers. They prepare and arrange the food on-set and help the actors with the skills that make them look like culinary experts. The production also calls on them to be extras in the kitchen...

The biannual Television Critics Association Press Tour isn't just about sitting in panels, talking to actors and showrunners.
Don't get me wrong. We do plenty of that for hours on end, attached to the keyboard, wielding recorders. But you read plenty of our coverage about that, so what else are we up to? I'm here to share a little more ...
Day 1
The summer tour kicked off Tuesday (July 27) with set visits. While my colleague Rick Porter traveled to Wisteria Lane for a "Desperate Housewives" visit and then on to "Parenthood," I visited the Warner Bros. lot.
First up was the Warner Bros. animation presentation. We got to see two new Wile E. Coyote shorts (darn you, roadrunner!) and a fun sizzle reel featuring "Batman: Brave and the Bold," "Mad," "Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated" (which is hilarious Btw) and the new "Looney Tunes."
Following a Q&A session during which many cartoon voices were heard,...
