I looked him up on YouTube and can't find any videos that are very long or show him doing things like tasting food and putting the spoon back in the sauce... Seems fun to eat in an unknown location and mystery courses but they overcharge! There was a video of him on CBS Eye On the Bay where they feed 4 people with only $20! And the donations are crazy! Up to $500!!! That would only be worth it if Chef John were the chef and you could help out with the cooking!!!!!!anailelianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02592539214610993955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-83558883385929969382011-01-28T22:18:23.584-05:002011-01-28T22:18:23.584-05:00I actually know EXACTLY who this is, I used to sel...I actually know EXACTLY who this is, I used to sell products to him, but I think the company that I worked for then no longer sells to him because of issues regarding money he owed them, I dont know the whole story but I guarantee you he is exactly the way you think he is, I wont say his full name here but if you want to know you can email me lolAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16287466031626632477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-80304183106379802222009-11-17T18:11:42.256-05:002009-11-17T18:11:42.256-05:00It is very interesting for me to read this article...It is very interesting for me to read this article.
