About me
I have been the Chef at a boutique hotel in Viginia's Blue Ridge for the past 3 years. I am beginning my own catering business. I have been cooking professionally since 1985, but I have cooked since I could stand at the stove. I am 57 years old. I get a headache when I hear myself say that. Never thought that I would make it this far. I married for the first time on 3 July 2008. I could never find a woman dumb enough to put up with me until now. My wife HATES when I say that! Which is probably why I say it. I just love to see her ears get all red and shoot steam out. My sense of humor has often been my downfall, but I won't let an opportunity for a bit of humor pass by unnoticed, even if it's a tad inappropriate and a bit unusual.

I'm ashamed to admit that I still haven't gone to Pied de Cochon! There's a Greek restaurant across the street from it - Jardins de Panos - that we've have been going to since it opened over 30 years ago and I can't go anywhere near that part of town without winding up there. So my fois gras poutine is still out there, waiting for me. ;)

I think we need to see your places and some menus! I like the challenge of making Cajun/Creole food in Italy.

I love your sense of humor, Chef!
Don't feel bad about being 57 -- I'm 60, and still rattling my cage!
