...you'll just have to check back at this site after the awards are announced this evening for breaking news - my spies have this one well-covered.

Good luck to Todd Gray, Mark Furstenberg, Fabio Trabocchi, Frank Ruta and Marc Vetri (Philadelphia). 

See you back here tonight,

Rocks.

Better yet, let's all wait for the announcement at our favorite place and show support for whom we want to win. I'll be at Palena.

Hi. I'm Michael and I'm a Palena-holic. It's been two days since my last crayfish bisque and roasted chicken.

Based on several recent excellent experiences at Mendocino Grill, I am greatly looking forward to this new place to enjoy the rare night off.

Funny, no one has cleared this event with my newly-acquired media consultant/Director of Reservations.
