Dave,Rich P, You don't just show us your dinner. You give us an experience.
-Dave
That is my goal. I have a strange ability. If you can tell me what's in it, I can taste it. That is, if I am familiar with the ingredients.As a DJ, I am able to size up an individual and do the same with music. Such things are my joy in life. The actual recipes I use are available on request (via PM). My hope is to inspire others to grow and enjoy, as our friend in the US embasy in Seoul Korea does.
If having a restaurant was simply making people happy with food, I would have been doing it for 40 years already. Actually, it is a life full of politics and BS. So I do it in my home, and for my congregation.
We don't eat out much, now that I am retired. We eat better at home. I have a couple of professional chef friends. I am always learning.
My beloved bride, Heidi, is my sous chef, muse, and critic. Her contributions are beyond successful valuation.
Enjoy,
Rich P
