Profile Information

What makes me a Foodie?

I cook, I'm an "eater!", I'm a gourmet, I love dining, I like wine, I work in the culinary world

About Me:

I've had a marketing & design studio for almost 20 years and a couple of years ago I decided to follow my passion for food and wine. I opened a restaurant, produced a jazz & wine series, and now publish DancingSpoon.com: Especially for Foodies.

And you're part of it!

Living, Cooking, and Eating

I've lived, cooked, and eaten in Los Angeles, San Diego, Boston, London, Paris and a small port town in New England. I'm a restaurateur, writer, publisher, jazz & wine festival producer, marketing and art director, graphic designer, former Parisian resident, dedicated foodie, and, most importantly, a single father.

If you ask me what my favorite wine is, I'll ask you what are we eating? If you press me with the “one type of wine on a secluded island” question, I'll say “good bubbles.”

And if you ask me which one cookbook I’d take to the island I'll answer Joy of Cooking, without question. What other cookbook has recipes from tuna salad to grilled ostrich?” On an island, you need to be resourceful.
