Just One Plate

Okay, so I am SO behind the times...more than 6 months to be precise.

How is it that I missed Just One Plate for this long?    I'm not sure, but there you have it, and now that I know about it, I of course have to share...just in case there are other ill-informed souls out there like myself.


The Saddle Peak Lodge - One of the restaurants featured on Just One Plate

The concept?  Go to some of the best restaurants Southern California has to offer, and get the chef to give up the goods on one of his/her favorite recipes.  Post the recipe along with a sexy photo.  Then ask the chef 10 questions.  They are the same 10 questions for each chef.  It reminds me a little of the Bernard Pivot questions James Lipton asks at the end of each episode of  Inside the Actors Studio.

They've picked places from Dana Point to Pasadena and everywhere in between.  As of this writing there are more than 30 restaurants listed.  It's just such a great idea, why didn't I think of it!??

I've perused the recipes and most of them are for the more skilled or adventurous cooks. But if you haven't the time, or the money to try some of these places, and love rolling up your sleeves in the kitchen, this website is for you!  I love a good challenge in the kitchen, don't you?

I am in love with this concept and any one who enjoys eating out, cooking, or food in general will have fun with it as well.

Check out Just One Plate for Yourself!

Cheers!
