Every once in a while the New York Times Sunday Magazine comes up with something really original. A few weeks back there was a story called “Chef d’Oeuvres” by Oliver Schwaner-Albright with photos by Tom Schierlitz that showed how committed some chefs are to their trade and the people and objects that inspire them. So much so that some chefs have had tattoos of their mentors, favorite knives, radishes, even the word “duck fat” (try the French fries cooked in duck fat at Hot Doug’s in Chicago and it will all make sense to you) permanently etched. If you know of anyone with a culinary tattoo send a photo our way. We’re starting a collection.

The latest addition to NYC's Chelsea Market is the Ronnybrook Milk Bar featuring Ronnybrook Farm's line of milk, yogurt, cheese and ice cream incorporated into seasonal breakfast and lunch menus. Team CH stopped by this morning for some Moocachinos and Eggs-in-a-hole, and spoke to purveyor Mark Sarosi about his foray into brand extension, the possibility of bringing Ronnybrook to the airport and lactose intolerance....
The Reindeer Follow-Up
Remember The Reindeer Pop-Up Christmas Restaurant in London's Brick Lane that we wrote about a few weeks back? It closes at the end of next week, but it's been such a success that we've heard it will definitely return—but in a different guise. The people behind it, who also run the more permanent Bistrotheque in East London, say they are looking at opening a...
