Going Cuban

Have you seen Chef, the movie? I did, and it blew me away. OK, it's not the greatest film it the world. It hasn't won all the big awards, and it's pretty hokey. That aside, the film is off the foodie charts. Not a surprising thing when the film is called Chef. 

The cooking scenes have been so lovingly framed and filmed that it makes you salivate, and then cook, and then stuff your face. 
I was taken aback at just how beautifully Director, and star, Jon Favreau, captured every element of cooking. Watching the scenes of him in the professional  kitchen made me think back to Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential, and his description of professional kitchens working almost as if in a choreographed dance. 

A question of image

I've come a long way since my first market late last summer. 

The first market was something I did on a whim. The opportunity came up and I thought I'd give it a shot.

After that each market has been a constant refinement of what I'm offering, and how I'm presenting myself. 

Every market has seen me bring something different to the market. It could be a different bake, it could be presentation, but at each market I want to be better.
