Adobe Photoshop starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 chefs to know a guide to chefs for chefs Edited by Antoinette Bruno Editing contributions from Will Blunt and Heather Sperling Research assistance by Lindsay Vietor Design by Zac Overman Information architecture by Richie Adomako Photo editing by Vicky Wasik Cover photo by Antoinette Bruno 2 3 starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 Acknowledgements The 2nd edition of Chefs to Know has proven to be no less a labor of love than the first edition. Chefs can be hard to track; with turnover in the culinary industry still averaging over 120% per year, the roster of industry members who have changed their jobs, closed their restaurants, or even left the country is ever-changing. Chefs to Know is a reality thanks to the the diligence and perseverance of those both on and off the StarChefs staff, both paid and unpaid, and the chefs who helped guide us along the way. They have all been critical to its success, and too many pitched in to help to be adequately thanked here. The StarChefs editorial team tasted and interviewed every chef, sommelier and mixologist on these pages, and the staff worked diligently, badgering chefs for information, searching for photos, googling chefs and restaurants, and calling kitchens in every city across the country. The tireless and industrious Lindsay Vietor came in as an intern, made the project her own, and rocked it out. Heather Sperling helped shape and conceptualize the book, and edited the copy over and over again. The book would not be what it is without her. Jon Proville pitched in when we needed him to help reach the finish line. Zac Overman lent the book its design and flair, Richie Adomako struggled heroically with the technical aspects of the data, and Vicky Wasik edited hundreds and hundreds of photos. My business partner, Will Blunt, lent a critical eye to the project, and supported and grounded us as we yet again refused to give up on hitting this moving target. Most of all, I want to thank my husband Ken Shoji and my children, Kendrick and Isabella, for putting up with me working every family vacation, almost every day off, and many, many evenings. I also want to acknowledge chefs across America (and this year abroad as well) who aren’t in this book who should be - we hope to include you in future editions. Whether we’ve tasted with you and lost touch or we’ve never met but should have, this book is about celebrating all of you and acknowledging your creativity, passion, and hard work.

StarChefs.com’s mission is to be a resource and aid for culinary professionals’ success; Chefs to Know is one of the tools that we offer to strengthen and further the culinary industry. At its heart, it’s an industry resource and an industry homage – it’s a fun, informative, inspiring look at the names and faces behind America’s stoves. It’s for anyone who wants to learn about the industry - from the tools and the flavors, to chefs’ favorite restaurants across the country. After years of working with chefs, we decided to compile the information from our interviews, gathered on tastings across the country, and put it all in one place. In the same way that our editorial content online is driven by tastings, every chef, mixologist, and sommelier featured in Chefs to Know has met with StarChefs.com’s editorial team, prepared a tasting, and invited us to get to know them during an interview. Having the first book under our belt, we took on the additional challenge this year of recognizing sommeliers, mixologists, and a handful of international chefs we’ve come across on our travels. We added new chef information: restaurant stats (covers, kitchen size, etc) as well as fun facts – like favorite flavor combinations and culinary travel destinations – to help get your creative juices flowing. The recipes and photos will hopefully inspire you to try new things, and the Restaurants off the Beaten Path index will keep you eating your way through chef haunts across the country. American cuisine – or, better said, cuisine in America – gets better and better each year. The variety, the talent and the passion is at once astounding and inspiring. The American spirit of rugged individualism and bold risk-taking is at the heart of these chefs’ personalities and, in large measure, the reason for their success. What distinguishes these chefs and their approach to cooking is their lack of boundaries: rather than being tied to strict cultural traditions in the kitchen, they are free to interpret cuisines from every country in the world. In this spirit we present the 2nd edition of Chefs to Know, and continue to connect the dots spanning the vast American culinary map. 10 11 starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 A{ Achatz - Ayers } 10 11 A starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 starchefs.com | chefs to know 2009 Grant Achatz Chef/Owner | Alinea 1723 N.

Also, a pair of sewing scissors that I received as a gift while working at the French Laundry. Functionally they are great in the kitchen. I tell the cooks at Alinea they can borrow them, but if they lose them they might as well walk away. Interview Question: I try to scare them away, that’s pretty much the tactic I take. I tell them how little money they’re going to make, what long hours they’re going to work, and how they’re going to lose any social life they may have. I want everyone to have a very clear understanding of what they’re getting into. After this, I ask: What makes you think you want to work here, as opposed to Trotter’s or The French Laundry? Flavor Combo(s): Strawberry, niçoise olive and violet Fave Cookbook(s): The French Laundry by Thomas Keller; Kaiseki by Yoshihiro Murata; Charmaine Solomon’s Encyclopedia of Asian Food Chef to Cook for You: Thomas Keller.

  • Built on a Legacy of Creativity, the Le Cirque Experience Unfolds A
    Built on a legacy of creativity, the Le Cirque experience unfolds a journey of French cuisine inspired by the Italian influences of its renowned creator, Sirio Maccioni. In 1974, Sirio opened what was destined to become a New York landmark – Le Cirque, which literally translates to, “the circus” in French, at the Mayfair Hotel. By 2006, Le Cirque was established in New York City. Over the years; Monkey’s, Circus Balls and Tent Shades have become symbolic representations of the restaurant, however, Le Cirque’s most iconic feature is the Maccioni family. Sirio’s sons – Marco and Mauro – followed in their father’s footsteps and can be seen working at Le Cirque’s many locations and sister restaurants. Alongside is a team of hospitality professionals whose talents are at your service. @LeCirqueDubai #LeCirqueCestChic GILLARDEAU OYSTER 35 ESCARGOTS 95 STEAK TARTARE© 85 SALMON RILLETTES 75 BURRATA 90 CAESAR SALAD© 70 OCTOPUS CARPACCIO 90 HEIRLOOM TOMATO© 70 SCALLOPS ESCABECHE 95 SUGAR SNAP SALAD 70 TUNA NICOISE 85 FOIE GRAS PARFAIT 95 * Please inform us of any dietary requirement SPAGHETTI PRIMAVERA© 95/125 LOBSTER RISOTTO© 125/155 DUCK & FOIE GRAS 115/145 AGNOLOTTI ASPARAGUS RISOTTO 95/125 POTATO HERB GNOCCHI 95/125 * Please inform us of any dietary requirement CONFIT SALMON 150 SEARED SEA BASS 185 GRILLED TIGER PRAWNS 225 HALIBUT© 180 DOVER SOLE© 305 BEEF “BOURGUIGNON” 305 DUCK À L’ORANGE 175 ONYX BEEF STRIPLOIN© 265 LAMB “NAVARIN”© 195 ONYX BEEF RIBEYE 295 CORN FED CHICKEN 150 VEAL SHANK© 450 CHÂTEAUBRIAND© 600 * Please inform us of any dietary requirement MASHED POTATOES 30 POTATO GRATIN 30 FRIES 30 FOREST MUSHROOMS 30 FINE BEANS 30 BROCCOLINI 30 SEASONAL SALAD 30 ASPARAGUS 30 LE CIRQUE BOOK 250 * Please inform us of any dietary requirement LE CIRQUE’S SIGNATURE CRÊPE SUZETTE © 95 CRÈME BRÛLÉE © 45 APPLE TARTE FINE 45 IL MIO “TIRAMISU’’ 50 CHEESE CAKE 50 CHOCOLATE DACQUOISE 55 PARIS BREST 50 PANNACOTTA 45 AFFOGATO 30 GELATO & SORBET 35 .

  • Auction Lots Contained in the Catalogue
    Dear Friends, The exciting, two-night event we know as ShuttleCork is in its seventh year and has earned its reputation as an exceptional event in every way. Guests know they will enjoy themselves and have access to superlative winemakers and exclusive wines, while at the same time supporting the world-class programs at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Likewise, visitors to the Nelson-Atkins know when they walk through the doors that their experience will be exceptional. This June, we bring you 30 Americans, contemporary art by many of the most important African American artists of the past four decades. In November, our visitors will discover the treasures from a royal tomb with Queen Nefertari: Eternal Egypt, an exhibition featuring one of Egypt’s greatest archaeological findings: the powerful, fascinating, and celebrated Nefertari. Exhibitions such as these would not happen if not for our generous donors! The guiding principles behind ShuttleCork were conceived and nurtured by our founding chairs Mary Bloch and Paul DeBruce. ShuttleCork 2019 welcomes Greg Maday as a co-chair; he will carry the mission forward with Mary Bloch. The event will continue to honor the brilliant idea that accomplishes two exceptional goals: raise funds to support the Nelson-Atkins, and bring a new set of enthusiasts to the museum. In the years since it began, ShuttleCork has raised more than $5 million to benefit the Nelson-Atkins, and it has been named one of the top multi-day fundraising events in the city. Most importantly, ShuttleCork has brought new friends to the museum, not simply as guests, but as instant supporters of our institution.

  • Andrew Zimmern
    5 Questions with Grant Achatz Submitted by andrew.zimmern on Tue, 09/09/2008 Alinea is part kitchen, part science lab. This highly-regarded, curious kitchen experiments with balloons, snow, fire... all with the hopes of creating innovatve dishes. Whatever the process, just ask anyone lucky enough have a bite: Grant Achatz is one hell of a chef. AndrewZimmern.com: What did you learn from the amazingly talented chefs who have mentored you over the years before you opened Alinea? Grant Achatz: I have been lucky to have a few key people take me under their wing at various points in my development. Steve Stallard was the first chef that I worked for. I credit him with giving me a great deal of confidence at a very young and essential age. His focus very European, I remember making procuitto from scratch and butchering game that he had shot on hunting trips. He would lecture me on the importance of hanging the birds, having a light touch and cooking sensibly. Thomas Keller mentored me at the French Laundry... really, he is the main one who guided me during my formative years as a young chef and I was exceptionally fortunate to have him as a teacher. Chef Keller leads by example and more than any technique, recipe, or dish, I learned that it takes incredible commitment, time, and passion to get things right. I truly learned how to season food from him. He is the one whom I credit fully understanding food and the experience of dining can be emotional and therefore art.
