What kind of music does Thomas Keller, reigning god of the restaurant world and virtual mayor of Yountville, enjoy? Well, Frank Bruni found out, and you'll have to go in the way-back machine to appreciate it: "Back to music: in restaurant after restaurant, I’d hear a track and giggle or smile at how unlikely it was for the setting, or how obscure, or how clearly reflective it had to be of some chef’s or restaurateur’s peculiar taste or sense of humor. That was my reaction when I heard old songs from the Cars and from Rick Astley (remember Rick Astley?) in Thomas Keller’s restaurant Ad Hoc." [Diner's Journal]
