THIS. And an excellent cook professional or otherwise has an interest in what others are doing. I go out to eat to be inspired as much as time. Even going out to eat can take a bit more time that I would like (That is why I rarely make reservations)

I find it very easy to believe.
Their Reginette pasta looks like it is just De Cecco mafaldine. I’ve been making that with veal and/or pork sugo at home since 2011 and have never been to Terroni. If I can do it I’m sure more talented chefs can do even better. I finish the sauce with 24 month old P. reggiano or Pecorino. I’ll even throw in the rind of the P. reggiano when braising the sugo.
Below is my version with hand torn lasagne sheets.
@Porthos, that looks delicious.
Maybe we can get more of the home cooks on here to participate in the Home Cooking board.
I really don’t want to have discussions with people who don’t get it and figure that because you can cook well, you never have the need to eat out.
I know how to drive too, doesn’t mean I don’t use a car service for special occasions or when I know I’m having a dinner out that is going to involve lots of alcohol.
Very bold statement!
All I want for Christmas…is your wealth of knowledge.
Thank you to all of the chefs who shared their knowledge. IMO hardest part is actually procuring ingredients and equipment which takes time, effort and money. The things you learn when you read.
Santa got me what I wanted on my list…guess I was a good boy this year.

Sexy gram shots, that’s for sure.
Not TonyC, but I like both. FWIW.
Oh my god: I want the Gjelina cookbook.
So how’s Coni Seafood 2017, anyone?
Think we are about to investigate tomorrow.
Now this is the kind of reporting at which JGold excels.
It sounds like (we are lucky to have) four excellent choices. MC on Centinela (in F-in’ Del Rey - not Mar Vista or Culver City 
) has been a ghost town every time we’ve been in - even with Sergio’s return. I hope JGold’s legit write-up resuscitates the place or else that PZ gypsy might take off again.
No shit Bula . I am making a trip to LA to meet up with Sergio again . You lucky duck .:
JGold should’ve have credited @westsidegal in that article.
We get a Bill Esparza shoutout instead.
Travesty.
Absolutely . My first time to LA , it was WSG who turned me onto Sergio’s cooking . I remember posting on CH and asking ; “Chefs who suffer for their food .” when I was going to be working in Culver C for a month , years ago . Nough said .
I hope Sergio and you have many fortuitous meets. He is still on his game.
Get it while it still there .
Awwwwww
Thank you
