About me

Gender Male
Occupation Chef
Location Superior, Colorado
Introduction I started in the food and beverage business in May of 1974. I am Chef/Owner of 12 Seasons Personal Chef and Sommelier Services(www.12seasonswinebar.com). The inspiration for the concept of my Personal Chef Service (originally called The French Manner) began in 1988 in Estes Park, Colorado. It began with the cooking of France and eventually migrated to other parts of the globe. Twenty-one years later in 2009, The French Manner has gone global and now operates as 12 Seasons Personal Chef & Sommelier Services. I still seek to do business under three basic premises: • We shall seek the highest echelon of clients for our services and cook creative, individualized menus for them • We will go anywhere, and do anything (for the appropriate costs) to provide memorable food & wine experiences • We will prepare the freshest of food products and serve our cuisine and wine in a professional and dignified manner... Peace.
Interests Playing golf anywhere, traveling (loved Ireland and Sweden), wine & cheese on a picnic, the beach and the ocean, windswept mountains and tall cliffs, rainy days, long walks with my wife and our dog, foie gras, dining with friends & spending holidays and special time with family.
Favorite Movies My favorite movie of all time is "Chariots of Fire" (1984). I like long complex & thought-provoking movies. And I always eat popcorn...
Favorite Music I grew up in the 1970's. Enough said... Special favorites are Springsteen, Fletwood Mac, Steve Winwood, The Doors, Dave Matthews and much more...
Favorite Books Cookbooks! I think that all cookbooks should have pictures, too! My latest interests are in "elBulli" by Ferran Adria, "The Big Fat Duck Cookbook" by Heston Blumenthal, "Alinea" by Grant Achatz and "Under Pressure" by Thomas Keller.

What would you wear for camouflage if you were hiding in a gingerbread house?

If I was hiding in a Gingerbread House I would coat myself with cherry, glucose and gelatin and camouflage myself as a Gum Drop....
