A Tiger in the Kitchen

Cheryl.jpg

 

Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan was one of my favorite people while she was working at the Sun as an entertainment and fashion writer.

She was generous to a fault, and when she left she turned over a file of features sources to me that was enormously helpful. So I owe her one. ...


Plus she was the first person to ask me to be a friend on Facebook, back when everyone else thought I was too old to be on Facebook. (And I was, although the Facebook demographic has changed now. But I was flattered to be asked.) It didn't surprise me the other day when Gailor told me that Cheryl has 1,215 friends.

I'm telling you all this because now I find she has a food blog, with beautiful photos, called A Tiger in the Kitchen, which is also the title of her book to be published in a couple of years by Hyperion's Voice imprint.

You're in Facebook?

No, so I couldn't be her friend. EL

Don't be silly, Owl.

Elizabeth! You are too sweet. Thanks for the mention.

Folks, happy to hear any and all feedback on my blog. I'll have to visit Baltimore again soon so I can blog about it. Hope you'll keep on reading! Cheers...

So, when do you retire and everyone will know your visage?

She does follow this blog, right? And understands the fundamental nature of the Sandbox? And she's inviting us anyway? Wow...she must be something.

If all of Tiger's pictures are that pretty, I'll be leaving drool marks all over the book. Who'd a' thunk a plate of breads and cheeses could be so danged PRETTY!

About this blog
Richard Gorelick was appointed The Baltimore Sun's restaurant critic in September 2010. Before joining the paper staff fulltime, he contributed freelance criticism and features articles about food to area and regional publications. Along the way, he dispatched for short-distance trucking companies, shilled for cultural non-profits, and assisted in cognitive neurology research – never the subject, always the control.

He takes restaurants seriously but not himself, and his favorite restaurant is the one you love, too.
