Our Spotlight Collaborators:
James Peterson, Photographer and Award-Winning Chef
Born in northern California, James Peterson traveled around the world, working his way through Asia and Europe. In '70s, he landed in Paris and was amazed by the French attitude toward food; it was here in France where he found his calling to cook. Jim returned to the United States and got his first cooking job as a short-order cook. While the cuisine was not 3-star, there was still the need for speed and organization. After saving money for a year, Jim returned to France where he worked at two of what were then among France's greatest restaurants, George Blanc and Vivarois. It was his experiences in these restaurants as well as his pasty studies at Le Cordon Bleu that shaped his style of cooking and drove his pursuit of cuisine as a career.
David Felton, Executive Chef
