I was catching up on my reading this morning and came across this article about Chef Perry Hoffman, culinary director at SHED in Healdsburg. I've always admired him and his family's commitment to food culture in Northern California. (Mark and I had our rehearsal dinner at The Apple Farm in Philo! Amazing!)
Needless to say, I was more than chuffed to see that Chef Perry enjoys my labor of love as well! Near the end of the Escoffier Questionnaire listing his favorite places to go for various food stuffs, he calls out La Forêt for chocolate! Thanks, Chef!
