I'm finishing up my trip to San Francisco (the farm-fresh food, spectacular scenery, and the cool weather make me want to move here) for the first leg of our Farmer's Market tour. I met quite a few of the Epicurious family while I was here and several talented chefs, including Michelle Stern, Helen Roberts, and Vinita Jacinto came by our booth in ...

I'm excited to report I am a guest judge tonight on Hell's Kitchen. I do love appearing on the show and it is completely as you see it--I never know anything about the challenge or competitors I am judging until I walk in, on camera, so I am as curious as you are to see who wins tonight's two-hour episode.
