My wife has met a number of the chefs at work functions. I get invited occasionally. I met Jamie Oliver - nice guy. She recently met Ricardo. I noticed though, that I only found out Nigella was in town for a meet and greet, from the news. The wife was invited, but did not go...When I asked why we didn't go to that one...all I got was an icy stare...lol...guess I been drooling on the TV screen too much...
