Martha StewartandJosé Andrésare having a ball on set of theirupcoming showYes, Chef!

“I didn’t know what it would be like working with him on something like this, but I thought it would be very interesting,” Stewart told PEOPLE on a recent day of filming. “And it has turned out to be very interesting, despite the fact that he hears and sees imaginary raccoons everywhere and he has rubber duckies and chickens [that he hides on set],” she added of Andrés' antics.

“He likes to play around, which makes it fairly pleasant, because he could be a stiff and he could be so serious that my day would drag on. Not with José, it’s always a lively and interesting adventure. Plus, he has really good things to say on the show.”

Stewart and Andrés have been living in Toronto whileYes, Chef!films. Even after long days on set, the two have been enjoying each other’s company after hours. They play cards, shoot darts and have meals together.

“We’ve been going out to dinner, she’s been coming and partying in my home for dinner, we cook together,” Andrés tells PEOPLE. “We eat together until they kick us out of the restaurant — no, we’ve been behaving.”

Yes, Chef!premieres on Monday, April 28, at 10 p.m. on NBC followingThe Voice.
