NEW INSPIRATIONS

It has been a very challenging time trying to find the right group of young chef to join me at the Rancho Bernardo Inn. I'm convinced that I have finally done it.....We haven't been together for more than a few days but I already feel the creative drive coursing though me. We were given the last minute photo shoot to complete...this is what we created.

VEGETABLE JUNKIE

http://winehosttv.com/?page_id=165

Just interviewed with Joel Reese From Leonesse Cellars for our up coming "Got Vegan" wine dinner. I will have photos to follow. Just wanted the Animal Rights Groups who have been camping out in front of the restaurant, that we don't need meat to be a world class restaurant.

Some of the food is there but not everything.
