Save the date!

David Kinch of Manresa will battle Bobby Flay on Iron Chef America on March 15 at 9 PM. Why should this matter any more than any other ICA episode? Because this is my brother's boss, that's why. My brother started his second internship in July of 2008 at Manresa Restaurant in Los Gatos, California. It's one of the few restaurants in the US to be awarded two Michelin Stars and four Mobil Stars. After having dinner there, it somehow doesn't seem like enough.

This episode was filmed just before my brother arrived, so alas, Lil Brotha will not be there. Perhaps next time.

That's very cool!!! I guess good cooking runs in your family then.

I'll have to start saving up. We just moved out to NC from San Francisco 18 mos ago and we're headed back for a visit in early June. It's the closest I'll ever come to "knowing the chef" so what the heck!

My mom keeps asking me if there's a race to see who gets on Iron Chef first. I'll be content to be my little brother's pastry chef.

I can't believe you moved here from SF, Kathy! I love that area! Have a good visit! I think Manresa might still be doing special, lower price dinners. You might want to check it out. I can't wait to hear about your trip!

Oh! The answer to my long-standing question. Where does Meg's brother work? I'll have to check out both the ICA and Manresa. Very fun.

PS: I have to tell you that reading that Ask a Dad is your favorite post made me laugh. I think it also made Tyler's year.
