Chef From Monrovia, California

Hello everyone.

I'm a home cook now, but worked as a line chef in a couple of very good SF Bay Area restaurants for awhile, and also a caterer. The catering done both in Nor- and SoCal. The pro experience was thirty years ago (how did I get so old?).

So, bartender, a grain of salt for everyone.

Love your handle, BDL! Right up my alley...

I was just noticing your trail of locations, and had to laugh. I think we may be ships passing in the night. I'm currently in South Orange County, but originally hail from Burbank, just around the corner from where you are now. And my folks live in the Bay Area, so I'm up there a lot...

Anyway. Welcome a-board!
