Stephane Meyer was his name?

Yes, a great guy and a phenomenal chef who is rarely happier than he is cooking at his station. I'd like to catch up with him again. At Savuer, it was always good to go back in the kitchen and talk with him or stay late and have a glass of wine he and his wife.

During slow times he'd grab ingredients from the walk in and and play around developing new dishes and teaching us techniques. How about smoked scallop with a smear of grainy dijon around the outside holding a wrapped slice of sauteed portabella in place....At some point in his career he had run the fish station in a London hotel. Damn, I wish I could clean and fillet fish with the speed and precision he did. He was so good you could see the indent in the flesh where it wraps around the spine.

Nice - did he have a daughter by any chance?

A couple of sons that I recall. They were around the age of just starting school back then. One night as a side project Stephane was cooking, then cleaning the bone and cartilage out of braised pigs feet. It was for a special request birthday meal from his kid. Only time we used trotters in the restaurant was for binding in a duck sausage for a seven course dinner we did for an Italian winery.

The woman of the same name who is an author and chef is no relation as far as I know.

Right, that was where I was going, she works for Haas now I think...

...and yeah La Pentola had different HC's from 2014 or so on so your guy has pretty much disappeared form the face of the earth from what I can glean.

...no.longer swinging canes.

Never knew he went into wrestling.

Also, "Mosca auctioned off the cane he used against Kapp at the following year's alumni luncheon for $7700, with the money going towards the alumni association's "dire straits" fund for struggling former players"

OJ…. 76 prostate cancer

Well, well, well...

Don't usually like to speak ill of the dead, but so many more deserving ways for him to go.

Fuck you Orenthal James. May you rot in hell for eternity.
