    Philippe Boulot Portland

    There are chefs who present their craft as precious and arcane as a Faberge egg. There are steady-eyed technicians who get the job done, hold the romance. And there’s an amalgam of the two, the gourmand who craves wild striped bass but whose inner pragmatist knows he must serve rockfish, the culinary general who steadily leads the troops through truffles that won’t sell and … [Read more...] about Interview: Chef Philippe Boulot
