VSL is going away but NOT this new blog. Not for a while at any rate. Stay tuned. It might be more fun now that the past is history... (Silly Wordplay).

Craig with his cat. In the ancient studio on 7th St. back in 1979

Craig was my first restaurant boss. I worked at one of Austin's favorite

bad restaurants, Kerbey Lane Cafe. Run by restaurant refugees and still 

in business. Now with multiple locations. Just think Omelettes and Pancakes

and you'll be on the right track. Craig taught me how to flip eggs over easy

without a spatula. A talent I've maintained over the decades.

Even won a bet once by flipping twelve eggs in one pan with NO broken yokes.
