Daniel Patterson of Coi talked food, government, writing his cookbook, and terrorizing his staff in a recent talk in New York, and the folks over at Eater National have the goods. On cooks versus congressmen: "This government thing? If you put cooks in charge of the country it would be great. The government now it's like, what you do today? Nothing? It's ok, it's alright. You know cooks, you ask 'What did you do today? Nothing? You're fired.'" [~ EN ~]
