Eatertainment

Today, I went with the American Culinary Federation (www.pikespeakchefs.org) down to Pueblo for their monthly meeting. Aside from the fact that my buddy Chef Pete has the talking car thing (telling us where to turn), the ride to Pueblo is not the most interesting.

Once there, we went into the Pueblo Commuinty College classroom to be awe inspired by a fancy chef from Italy talking about some crazy new imported products. Before 1950, I might have been enthralled with a European Chef coming to America to show the best in culinary education. Not anymore. I have found the next best thing to Chef Demonstrations in the Champagne Chef - Keith Jones (www.champagnechef.com). He does this crazy thing called 'Eatertainment', which is a combination of entertainment and fabulous food.

With a show in Denver on the Radio, a TV show playing in Asia, a book coming out in February, a culinary ambassador for numerous cooking systems (Wolf, SubZero, Electrolux), this guy can stand the test of any European chef. Keep an eye out for this guy as you may see our local boy on the Food Network in the future!!
