Profile Information
- I am:
- Hungry, a chef, a producer
- I live in:
- The Greater Los Angeles area
- About Me:
- I'm a foodie who's totally turned on by the idea of underground restaurants and I'm looking to learn more... and perhaps have the chance to try some out. So step one I guess is getting my interest out there and hoping for the generosity of strangers to direct/guide me to finding some.

- David,
Jade, the manager at the downtown Urth cafe, is a total gastronome. She's dialed into the underground scene and keeps promising to send Virginia and I invitations, but then forgets. I say you promise her associate producer credits and see what happens. D

- David,
Thank you for the info too. I just emailed my husband to see if he wants to go on Dec 5th, sorry you and your wife won't be able to make it. Maybe we'll meet somewhere along the way of this exciting underground world of food.
Have you attended any of the "Outstanding in the Field" dinners? I have not yet.
Happy Holidays
