The Motto in My House Is:
“You must, at least, take one bite. You may be happily surprised.”
I Got to Know the Food Business:
by working summers as a chef and employee of Ina Garten’s Hamptons’ food shop, The Barefoot Contessa. I grew up in Manhattan where street food and gourmet dining were a big part of my life.
But, the Biggest Influence On My Cooking:
has been the nightly dinner table discussions, debates and arguments about food with my husband and three children.

Jodie,
I wish we could but we are too small and there are few too spots for us to do that this go-around. Perhaps, if we do this again next market season we might be able to. Good luck and thanks for your kind words.
