October 25, 2007, Beyond the Measuring Cup: A Look at Things Beyond the Usual in Food and Health.
Today’s guest is Billy Allin, the Chef and Owner of a new restaurant that will be opening in mid December in down town Decatur, called Cakes and Ale. It’s name comes from a Shakespeare quote that actually came before that from Eosops Tale. “Cakes and Ale” refer to the good things in life. www.cakesandalerestaurant.com
Billy Allin has experience with chef Alice Waters at Chez Panisse in California, and most recently at Watershed where he has been working for the last 3 years.
Billy talked about how important he feels good ingredients are to the creation of good food. There will be an emphasis on locally grown and organic and sustainably raised food used as the basis of his cooking. His plan is to create a place where people will linger because it feels so homelike and comfortable. There will be a wine list that will be very affordable and approachable. We'll have Billy back once the restaurant is open. Good luck Billy!
