Tom Valenti on eGullet

Recommended Posts

As Steve S announced this morning here (clicke moi, svp) Tom Valenti has a new book called "Welcome to My Kitchen" coming out from HarperCollins. To raise buzz for his book he'll be appearing in our hallowed halls for questions and suchlike.

Good move for him and HarperCollins and good for eGullet members. Buzz for him, buzz for us. We have an informed, civil, humourous, and international memberbase which already includes at least two other prominent Steves. If we schedule more such events, who knows how many Steves we might assimiliate? Regardless of their names, we need more Steves.

What do you think? Discuss.

What do you think about Chef Valenti? Have you eaten at Ouest? Clicke this clickable link to an article if you are not as yet familiar with either.

Who would you like to see hold such discussion sessions here?

Are you a Steve?

Liza, you are so, like, "Steve" y'know that, like, it's a whole other kind of "Steve".

(Stephen Daedalus wasn't so Stevesque, I think.)

Perhaps you should take the Steve Test on the Tao of Steve site. That's the best way to determine whether you're a Steve or a Stu.
