The wind stopped blowing so I got down to the lake today and saw 3 loons, 5 ducks, 1 eagle and a dead bullhead, pretty good sized. I did not eat any of them.
A chef by trade, I had a restaurant and bar in the jeweled lake country of Mn for 20 years. A terrifying, yet rewarding endeavor. I remain interested and passionate about food and consider eating to be the ultimate existential experience; we must eat to live, and since we must eat, let us eat well. As the Captain, I explore the world of food at my doorstep, at your doorstep, and beyond the doorsteps of the many cafe's and restaurants of this exquisite Mn lake country. It is a picnic. I remain the Captain because I have no choice. Food has chosen me. I'll tell you about it.
I also write a guest column for a local newspaper,the Mille Lacs Messenger, do a food piece for their quarterly magazine, the Compass,and write about outdoor food for Mn Outdoor News and Lake Country Journal magazine. I also teach occasional cooking classes.
All food is outdoor food, or should be.
