Bio/Memoir, Food & Wine, North Carolina
The Triangle region of North Carolina (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, Cary, and Pittsboro) is becoming known nationally as a hot spot for chefs and restaurants that are mentioned increasingly in Food & Wine, Gourmet, Saveur, Bon Appétit, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and other national periodicals.
Drawing from personal interviews, Prospero has written profiles of both established and up-and-coming chefs from the area. Each entry reveals the chef’s cooking philosophy, influences, and personality. Each profile also describes the ambience of the chef’s restaurant and offers two or three of the chef’s recipes, each of which has been tested for home cooks.
