Getting one restaurant recognized by James Beard is pretty special!  So its really impressive to do it twice!  There are many more out there who are better qualified to give you the accolades you deserve, Rob, but I definitely want to extend my congratulations!

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.

It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

I sure miss having the time to be active in eG :( But I knew my long-time friends would have heard the news. So many learnings to get to this point, and many have asked me the difference between this and the one from New Mexico. I promise I'll post something as soon as I can. Thank you all so much!
