I’m still a little mad at Amy Zurzola Quinn ’94 for the ruthlessness with which she edited a Collegian feature I wrote back in the early ’90s, but diplomatic guy that I am, I’ll go ahead and link to her feature in today’s Philadelphia Inquirer anyway. The story, “Look Who’s Cooking,” is a cool look at the unlikely folks you’ll find in the kitchens of some of Philly’s hipper restaurants; turns out they’re not chefs at all, but enthusiastic amateur foodies taking part in something called “Open Chefame.” The link includes a couple of recipes that sound terrific.
