Sous Chefs: Unsung Heroes

Published Friday, April 26

Despite the acclaim heaped upon their mentors, we very seldom hear from the unsung heroes of the restaurant kitchen. Sous chefs aren`t lauded with awards. Or mentioned in most restaurant reviews. They seldom get credit for dishes they`ve created that make it onto a restaurant menu. And - in most cases - there are few restaurant patrons who even know their names. In fact, I`d venture a guess that most people, unless they`ve worked in the service industry, don`t have a very clear understanding of what a sous chef (French for "under chef") really does.

New tickets and stickers

Published Wednesday, March 13

When folks would leave the museum, often they`d slap their sticker onto one of a couple light posts along Lincoln Memorial Drive, near the northerly entrance to Art Museum Drive. The poles have, consequently, been practically wallpapered with stickers from ground level up to a level just out of arm`s reach for humans of average height. But now that tradition may begin to diminish as quickly as the blue decoration on the old stickers has faded in the sun.
