Hey everyone

Sorry it has been a while, I have been super busy getting things together for Catalyst restaurant in Cambridge Ma, we have been working night and day to get this project into a working state, not just with the construction but with everything else, I cant wait to share more recipes with you and other fun things, In this hiatus from 28 degrees I have had the opportunity to do some work with the ex chef of Villa Matta Mike P. here in boston as well as working closely with the chef owner of duexave in boston chef Christopher Coombes. Now that all of the construction is complete and there are only a few days to really call this place complete Chef William Kovel has had more of a chance to step into the kitchen and help Anthony Mozzatta and my self develop the up and coming lunch menu, and share his talents with ours to make a great menu and put some of our talents to work. I will be setting a day soon to write new recipes and photos for my face book. I hope we are all still cooking at home and really striving to bring back and older fashioned way of life, like dinner at a kitchen table!!
