Watch this man

There can't be that many 15 year olds who eat twice at Per Se, Thomas Keller's flagship New York restaurant, especially alone. So it shouldn't be such a surprise that Nick N, author of Foodie at Fifteen, got special treatment, including a signed French Laundry cookbook, at the end of his last meal.

I was reminded of Heston Blumenthal. It seems a meal at the age of fifteen was a seminal moment for him as well.

Very impressed with this blog - and he makes me feel so old! I've posted him a message and linked to him so I can see how he gets on working at Lacroix. I didn't want to break the bad news about the problems that his choice of title will give him in a year's time! Thanks for the link Anthony.
