Readers of this blog would be aware of my admiration towards women running kitchens. My own mother, however, is actually dismayed by females who have climbed corporate ladders and such because they end up not taking care of their families. The fact is, most women in such high positions don't bother with having families at all--a smart move, unless the man in their lives (if they have one) are willing to reverse roles. Frequent readers should also know my general disdain for molecular gastronomy, so obviously I was tickled by Chef Sara Jenkins' comment: "Boys with toys." Here's a nice long interview from NYMagazine with seven local chefs...enjoy!

ELIZABETH FALKNER'S DEMOLITION DESSERTS
With fun illustrations by her younger brother spanning the pages, Chef Liz Falkner's book is a joy to read and cook from. The recipes start off simple, with Falkner offering what she deems the perfect chocolate chip cookie (who doesn't want one of those?), slowly transforming into creations as complex as those served in her restaurant-bakery in San Francisco.
