Tuesday Night Supper Club--Making Reservations

it's my birthday

and

i am in hawaii

so

the only cooking I will be doing

is

cooking up falsehoods

about my age

we are eating out tonight

at a restaurant whose owner

grows all the produce on his 8 acre upcountry farm

and serves fish caught fresh daily

my expectations are endless

instead of a recipe

i thought i would leave you with this excerpt

from a book called A Meal Observed

by Andrew Todhunter

this is a quote from Philippe Legendre

previously the chef at Taillevent (3 michelin stars)

"People who have no love to share eat poorly, and they don't cook. If you love cooking, you will cook, at whatever level.  People who like to be around a table, who like to share--they'll try to cook, even if it's only an egg.  I would much prefer to eat an egg with friends than caviar with strangers.  That's important."

Tuesday Night Supper Club will resume next week

when I am no longer on vacation

and it's not my birthday

in the meanwhile

EAT UP!
