One of the more influential chefs I have had the pleasure of working with will be in town this weekend to cook dinner for a Buddhist wake/memorial.
Six months out of the year, he is the chef at Chez Panisse and the other six months, him and his partner Randy live in Paris and host dinner parties. Their seventeenth century apartment is called. "aux chien lunatique"
I know David from Cafe Escalera in Santa Fe. I'd give you a link, but Escalera 'flamed out' years ago. At least, that's what it says when you do a 'Google.'
