I have always doubted that restaurant chefs fully share the secrets of their recipes. I also suspect that food editors always step in and write the final version. I'm glad you enjoyed the wine. I hope you are having a great day.

I noticed somebody left a comment about a difference in the seasonings from what was on tv - maybe it was that? Anyway, I'm a FN freak and I do love that show! It's fun to see what the "best thing" is, depending on the category of the day. They have really featured some yummy looking things!<br /><br />Happy weekend! We are down here waiting to see what this oil slick is going to do & where.
