Kitchen Confidential

Hello Everyone,

Below is this month's demo to go with our reading of Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential. This is also a reminder that our meeting has been moved up a week (this coming Wednesday rather than August 31st).

Let me just begin by saying how excited I am to take on some of the responsibility for running the club. I am extremely excited to work more closely with you all. As you probably know, Lindsay got a new job at Microsoft (Congrats Lins!), and won't be able to do a lot of the prep work (maintaining the blog, meeting with Doug about demos, etc.) As a member of the staff at GBC, as well as a member of FFT, I'm in a great position to take care of what we've taken to referring to as "her baby". Rest assured, Lindsay will remain an integral part of the club, and will be at our meetings (just a little late).

Now on to the appetizing part- Wednesday's meeting!

For our demo, Doug will be making pommes frites (French Fries) fried in duck fat and roasted Guinea hens. I know that I am excited for another one of his delicious demos.



Mark your Calendars with the book choices for the next few months:

September 28th: The Art of Eating In: How I Learned to Stop Spending and Love the Stove

October 26th: Sex, Death & Oysters: A Half-Shell Lover's World Tour
November 30th: Cherries in the Winter

I hope everyone can make it for our last meeting of the summer!

Brianne
