  • Alum Gail Silverton Operates Gelato Shop in Studio City
    Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community Page 1 of 5 Categories: COVER STORY Date: Jun 19, 2008 Title: Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community BY PAULINE ADAMEK Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community The Silverton family legacy connects food and community (R-L: Gail Silverton, Andreas Krankl, Larry Silverton,Nancy Silverton, Joel Gutman). www.robertevans.com Silverton family honors a legacy of Food and Community BY PAULINE ADAMEK The story of the Silverton family is a fascinating tale of how many successful businesses have been developed and nurtured, creating a legacy that entwines food with community. Importantly, these enterprises are driven more by heart than by fiscal reward, and reap greater successes than anyone had anticipated. This tale starts with a benevolent patriarch, Lawrence S. Silverton. A construction lawsuit-attorney, savvy businessman, real estate tycoon and coffee, calligraphy and motorcycle enthusiast, Larry used his business acumen and support to enable his two daughters, Nancy and Gail, to make an indelible mark on the Los Angeles landscape and beyond. Now he’s assisting his six grandchildren in their studies and burgeoning business enterprises. Larry Silverton’s Story: Born in South Dakota, Larry moved to Sherman Oaks and started a family with his wife, Doris. When most mothers in the 1950s were taking advantage of labor-saving technologies, Doris, a journalist and writer, taught her daughters the goodness of lentils, goat’s cheese and a beautifully set table. This gave the Silverton sisters an appreciation of the heart and hearth of family and a desire, later, to create a product and environment that could contribute to the community.

  • Paley's Places Patrick Mckee Is the Executive Chef at Vitaly Paley's
    PATRICK MCKEE BIO Executive Chef – Paley’s Places Patrick McKee is the Executive Chef at Vitaly Paley’s landmark restaurant, Paley’s Place. He joined the Paley’s family in October of 2004 as a line cook and has spent the last eight years learning, growing and exploring Pacific Northwest cuisine with Vitaly Paley. “Working at Paley’s Place has hands down been the best job I have ever had. I’ve been challenged since I stepped foot into the kitchen,” McKee says. Before joining Paley’s Place in 2004, McKee began his culinary career in Portland as a dishwasher at Santé in 1994. He then moved to Jazz de Opus where he worked as a line cook and began to develop his culinary skills. After Jazz de Opus, he began working at Zefiro under Chris Israel. “Chris gave me some of the best professional advice I have ever received. He told me seek out the best chef in the area and work at that restaurant. It was that advice that led me to Paley’s Place,” said McKee. From Zefiro, McKee had a couple of stints at Mint and then Castagna. He then moved to Eugene for a change of pace and worked at Marché where he continued working with local, Pacific Northwest ingredients. From Marché, McKee took his first role as executive chef at Eugene’s Red Agave. When he decided to move back to Portland, Chef Vitaly Paley was the first person he called to inquire about a job. McKee’s love of food began early in his life and he credits his mom for his love of cooking.

  • Gordon Ramsay, a Konyha Fenegyereke
    Gordon Ramsay, a konyha fenegyereke Ha egy olyan vibráló, dinamikus, rutinos konyhaművész főz, mint Gordon Ramsay, gyorsan peregnek az események, ember legyen a talpán, aki a látottak alapján elkészíti az ételeket. Még szerencse, hogy ott a videó! Nemrég karácsonykor Gordon kétféle zseniális karácsonyi menüt készített, egy hagyományosat, és egy „alternatívat”. Utóbbi annyira megtetszett nekem, hogy elhatároztam, kipróbálom, és ezt ajánlom Önöknek is, ha majd itt az ideje! A receptek listája a cikk alján található. Névjegy: Gordon (James) Ramsay 1966 november 8-án született a skóciai Johnstone Renfrewshire- ben. Főszakács, médiaszemélyiség, étteremtulajdonos és szakíró, a A Brit Birodalom Érdemrendje kitüntetettje, több Michelin-csillag tulajdonosa. A Nem piskóta című könyvéből kiderül, hogyan lett egy nyomorban tengődő skót kissrácból akkora híresség, mint amilyenek a focisták vagy a filmsztárok: a szakács, akinek csúcsgasztronómiát képviselő étteremholdingja van, saját szakácsiskolával.Több mint 20 éttermével szerte a világban, New Yorktól a trianoni palotán át egészen Tokióig összesen 12 Michelin-csillagot szerzett. Ezzel, az étterembirodalommal rendelkező séfek között Ramsay a világon a harmadik, Joel Robuchon és Alain Ducasse után. Nagy-Britanniában jelenleg egyike annak a három szakácsnak, akik az éttermük színvonalát a legmagasabb, háromcsillagos szintre fejlesztették. Életútja Ötéves korában került Angliába. Egy lecsúszott brit család gyerekeként arról ábrándozott, hogy híres focista lesz, de egy térdsérülés következtében sportpályafutása megszakadt, és érdeklődése a főzés, a szállodaipar felé fordult. Az 1980-as évek késői szakaszában szakácssegédként dolgozott a Wroxton House Hotelben, majd a Wickham Arms konyháját üzemeltette, ahonnan távoznia kellett, mert összeszűrte a levet a tulajdonos feleségével. Ekkor Londonba költözött, ahol megfordult egy sor különböző konyhán, míg össze nem hozta a sors a temperamentumos Marco Pierre White-tal, aki a saját éttermébe, a Harveys-be hozta.

  • A Message from Mark Price - Waitrose MD Celebrating International Picnic Day the History of Cocktails
    Food & Wine June 2013 The Journal of The International Wine & Food Society Europe & Africa Committee Free to European & African Region Members - one per address - Issue 115 A Message from Mark Price - Waitrose MD Celebrating International Picnic Day The History of Cocktails © Brittany Ferries 1 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE Dear Members, Writing to you at three monthly intervals certainly brings home how quickly they pass. For Eve and me this period has seen relocation from our home of 39 years to something smaller, albeit within sight of the previous property. We were pleased to be able to find time to attend events of both the Manchester and the Merseyside & Mid-Cheshire branches, including their respective Annual General Meetings. I write this near the end of April and we are looking forward to attending a Liverpool branch event for the first time. Terry Lim and friends are to be congratulated on building that branch into a viable entity in a short space of time. Congratulations are also due to the Zurich branch for organising a very successful break in the Lake Maggiore area this April. That leads me to mention news of some other areas where prospects are being nurtured. Experience has taught us that a promising start is no guarantee of getting sufficient members for a provisional charter to be granted but Latvia and Athens are two possibilities. So also is Munster and in that connection, if you have friends who live in or around Cork who might be interested in joining a branch in that area then please pass details to Katie Wilkins (contact notes appear next to the Editorial) so that they can be notified of developments.

  • Pierre Koffmann BIOGRAPHY
    Pierre Koffmann BIOGRAPHY Koffmann occupies a unique position among chefs in this country. He is the chef of chefs, the chef all other chefs look up to. - Matthew Fort, Guardian Weekend Combining a rustic gutsiness with haute cuisine, Pierre Koffmann knows how to combine tastes and flavours like no one else. He cooks the kind of food he likes to eat; the food of the French countryside and of his grandparent’s farmhouse kitchen in rural Gascony. Pierre’s cookery books include Memories of Gascony (new edition June 2016; Mitchell Beazley), and La Tante Claire: Recipes from a Master Chef (Sep 2012; Mitchell Beazley). Classic Koffmann was published in 2016 by Jacqui Small, and won the 2017 James Beard Foundation Book Award for ‘Cooking from a Professional Point of View’. He has appeared on numerous television shows, including Masterchef and Masterchef: The Professionals (BBC), Saturday Kitchen (BBC), The Chef’s Protégé (BBC), and as judge in the BBC One daytime show Yes Chef which ran for two series in 2016-2017. After training in his hometown of Tarbes, southwest France, Pierre worked his way up at restaurants across France and Switzerland, before moving to the UK. Pierre quickly found himself working as Sous Chef for Michel and Albert Roux at Le Gavroche and within six months he was promoted to Number 2. After a quick stint at Brasserie Benoit in the City, Pierre was appointed Head Chef at the Roux Brothers’ new Waterside Inn at Bray. In his five-year tenure he helped them achieve two Michelin stars. In 1977, with backing from Michel and Albert Roux, Michael Caine and Professor Von Clan, Pierre opened his first restaurant, La Tante Claire, in Chelsea, achieving his first Michelin star the following year, a second in 1980 and third in 1993.
