Beneath a photograph of chef Thomas Keller cradling a live chicken, school garden guru Alice Waters recalls a memorable meal she shared with her daughter at Per Se. On her friend, chef Keller, Alice writes: "When I think of adjectives to describe Thomas, those that come to mind are sharing, generous, offering. He isn't one of those chefs who keep secrets. I think of him as a culinary comrade-in-arms, as concerned with the provenance of food as he is about how it tastes and looks on the plate." [Vanity Fair][Photo: Chelsea McManus/Eater Vegas]
