KQED Food Site
Back in October I wrote something about Jacques Pepin's new series on PBS called Fast Food My Way. As a result, so many people clicked on the link to the website for the show that the folks over at KQED public broadcasting who had produced the series took notice. They put a link to this very site on their cooking section homepage, and more importantly invited me to be one of the writers for their new Bay Area Bites blog. As a longtime fan of Jacques Pepin, how could I resist?
I am thrilled to be associated with KQED and to be writing for their site which I think will provide a variety of Bay Area perspectives on our rich local culinary scene. While the site is in its infancy, feel free to check it out and read my first post to the site. And as they say in broadcasting--stay tuned!
