Our favorite local BBQ mastermind, Adam Perry Lang of Daisy May's, is profiled today in the Times Dining section. Alex Witchel looks at his work not only at Daisy May's but also at Robert's Steakhouse, the delicious and well-received steak joint at the Penthouse Executive Club (read: club where executives are entertained by exotic dancers), perhaps the first meat market where you can eat meat, plus his culinary credentials gathered from NY (Daniel Boulud, Les Halles, Chaneterelle), Paris (Guy Savoy), and Santa Fe (for a little BBQ). We wonder if Frank Rich demanded to accompany Witchel to Robert's Steakhouse - he was the "Butcher of Broadway," you know.
And congratulations to Adam and his wife, Fleur, on the arrival of their first child, Max. We hear that babies can eat soft foods around 8 months - hello, sweet potatoes with brown sugar!
Reader FDL tells us that his office ordered in a special pre-Thanksgiving-turkey BBQ feast from Daisy May's - now that's a company that cares about its employees.
