Stopped by the Culinary Institute of America to do a photo shoot of a master pastry chef for a column I write every month. After a couple of shots, we were told to relax and suddenly this appeared for us (the picture doesn't do it justice at all!) :drool:

I hope it was you that took that pic and not your photographer cause it sucks.
Yeah, it does suck! Wanna come work for the magazine? It wasn't taken for publication, just for our own enjoyment. Personally, I think my pics are better, but I already do enough stuff around here and get paid practically nothing.

Lucky you! Looks fantastic!

Also, the irony of this statement isn't lost on me:

"to do a photo shoot" and "the picture doesn't do it justice at all!"

It's a shame that all that beautiful art got converted into poo....
Eat hot death, Skook.

It's not enough that we cooking fools gotta deal with people who like 'well done' anything - then there's people like you pointing out the [disgusting but accurate] obvious results of all our labors.

the photo shoot was with the chef. This food was just an extra bonus
It's bonuses like that that make it all worthwhile. I'm drinking a $130 bottle of wine right now cuz my woman got it free from the vendor. :D

Is it 13x better than a good $10 bottle? :D
It's amazing. Chewy even. Since it was free, it is infinitely better than a $10 bottle :blah:

it's a Super Tuscan... 2001 Camartina, Agricola Querciabella. We're gonna visit that winery next spring :D

And yeah, we're weird like that... chewy wine in Summer. Bring it on.

Nope. You gotta make reservations. Currently they are all booked up. But by the time you save up to eat there they should have something available.
