New York City & Cooking at the James Beard House.
January 19th, 2010
On Monday February 8th, I’m headed to NYC for what I feel is an opportunity of a lifetime. Chef Brian Cartenuto of Cantinetta will be cooking up a dinner at the James Beard House and I have been invited to accompany him and help out in the kitchen. Holy fuck eh? I am beside myself with excitement. Not only is Brian a phenomenal chef but he’s also a good friend. To be there as part of his support staff is a true honor in every regard.
There wont be any details of my culinary class exploits that week since Ill be taking it off of school (the lovely folks at LCB are happy to work with me in making up any work I may miss) but I will be writing about my experience at the James Beard House and my time in NYC.
Check out the interview I did with Brian here as well as the details of the event here.
