Newsletter - Summer 2009
It's been a pleasant summer so far. There are lots of great summer recipes prepared by our chefs on my website.
The especially prominent Carla Hall Chef/Owner of Alchemy Caterers was on show 760. She prepared Short Bread and a Summer Salad. Since last appearing on "Recipes from the Chef's Kitchen" Carla Hall was a contestant on the Bravo Network show "Top Chef". She is now a celebrity in the cooking world.
Her catering business has taken off since her being on "Top Chef". Carla also does promotionals and cooking classes. She will be writing a cook book soon. It was pleasant having her back.
Below are two pictures of her taken on the set episode 760. I hope you enjoy them.
I am traveling to my home town of Chicago for two weeks and am adding some new recipes from some of Chicago's famous restaurants.
When in Chicago I did visit some of the many Chicagoland restaurants. Pictured below are just two of them. These have been around for a long time and have excellent menus plus reasonally low prices.
Warm Regards,
Lindsey
