Dear God:
Keep me far away from a place where that snake oil vendor, scam artist, and overall fake cook Jose Andres sets foot. Please, also spare me of coinciding in time and space from a place where that sour puss, militant crazy bitch Alice Waters sets foot. Please concede all the lovers the chance to meet them, and the chance to repent, too.
Thank you God, you’re so kind!

Many moons ago, when Jaleo Crystal city opened, I was a recent grad school grad, and I waited tables while searching for my first job in int’l development.
