Over the summer, I did a little more than my usual television watching. It was too hot to do anything else, people. Don’t judge! I binge watched the entire Breaking Bad series, finally finished Downton Abbey and, on my chiropractor’s recommendation, blew through Grace and Frankie. I don’t regret the hours I spent on the couch with the remote nearby, but I do wish I had devoted more time to another Netflix series, Chef’s Table. I mean, if I had, I could have spent longer mooning over Massimo Bottura…
Despite working in restaurant for decades, I’ve never dated a chef, (hmmm, maybe that’s because I’ve worked in restaurants for decades?) but this Massimo guy is absolutely dreamy. He’s handsome, funny, beyond creative in the kitchen, appreciative of his employees, generous and madly in love with his wife. Pretty much the ideal guy.
Read this article, preferably with a hunk of good Parmesan-Reggiano and a glass of wine. I think you’ll like him, too. Do you have a chef crush?
Great, invigorating, fun, and informative read.
He should write a book ‘Born to cook and create’.
