Sunday's Column - the Chef

This week the column was devoted to a visit to a chef in Carlsbad who grows his own food at the restaurant's farm.

Chef Eugenio hails from near Venice and has always been interested in growing things.  As a result when the owners of the restaurant - the West Bistro - offered a piece of land to him for cultivation, he jumped at the chance.  On my visit he showed me all the crops he was growing.  There were a lot.  He visits the farm several times a day to decide what to put on the menus at the two restaurants he manages.  The food was pretty good too.
Unfortunately, the Sun has not yet put up the piece on line, so I'll have to make one of those unpleasant phone calls tomorrow!  Hopefully you will soon be able to read it at www.sbsun.com/trevorsttravels
