Alice Waters, founder and owner of Chez Panisse, spoke to a packed house at Garrison Theater last night. It was interesting to hear about her journey as a chef, restauranteur, champion of local and organic food because that was not how she started out. She just wanted to have food that tasted really good. I especially liked her story of how her daughter started at Yale eight years ago and neither one of them could stand the smell of the cafeteria on the first day. Before the freshmen and their parents met the president of the college, her daughter told her mother NOT to say anything about the food, but Alice could not resist, and now Yale has a sustainable food project.
