UPDATE... on Jonathan!

As everyone knows Jonathan and I are back in New York. We have be invited back to The Valley by Chef Jeff Raider. Valley's season ends soon and Jon and I are working hard and finding our new home in the city. We will be moving shortly, and looking forward to working in a NYC restaurant. Jon and I in the past have worked together in the same kitchens, but this time we have decided to go separate, learn different things, and bring our lessons to the table at the end of the day and teach each other something new!
Lately Jon has been going to the city and trailing in restaurants he is interested in. (trailing is volunteering your own time to learn in a kitchen without pay, purely for the education & inspiration) this week he is in the city trailing for two very different places. The first Chef Neil Ferguson at Allen & Delancey. The chef has worked under Gordon Ramsey and has just opened a new restaurant in the city this past week! take the time and read a little about it, very exciting: http://www.allenanddelancey.net/
The second is a place that has been doing amazing for awhile. Chef Daniel Boulud, one of the Godfathers of Cuisine. Jon will be trailing at The fine dining restaurant DANIEL. again take a chance and read for yourself about his french cuisine: www.danielnyc.com/daniel

Either way, Jon is in for some great lessons, and fun times. We will keep you in touch in his decisions ! Wish him luck !
