A STONE KNIFE

Chef Derek and His Son Winston in Parma, Italy

 

My wife Andrea, our then 8 month-old son Winston, and I spent two weeks in Parma, Italy in April of 2008. We rented an apartment in the Palazzo dalla Rosa Pratti. Winston and I are just outside the Rossi Prati while listening to the accordion player. He was playing in the same spot every day we were in Parma. Andrea and I so enjoyed his music! Winston- not so thrilled. What beautiful, cherished memories!! Stay tuned for our Italian themed wine dinner coming this October 25th, a Tuesday night.

Ciao, Chef Derek
