If we have cooked for these guests once, we have cooked for them hundreds of times over and again. They love us, and us them. They grace us with their presence at the chef's table as well as practically every club event that we care to offer. They are truly one of my followers, my foodies, my culinary groupies! I might not have the media knocking on my door due to the private club stigma, but I have a cluster of well-traveled, well culinary educated folks that are devoted fans. That is one of the key reasons why I have stayed this course as long as I have...(think decade plus!) Whenever these gracious and wonderful people call me to dine, it gets us giddy about the ideas of new thoughts and ideas in food. Here is the impromptu menu below. I hope you become as inspired as we were cooking it! Sorry, camera was left in the car. Enjoy...cuisinier.
