It’s a humbling ambivalent thing to be runner up to an excellent contender but I’ve found it makes me happy for their success in the long run, and proud to sit nearby in a program. Very glad you got some Zaragoza. GOATed with the sauce, them.

Happy to be a part of the club, but I think you are also a member of that other club--so you are both one of the enemies and one of the allies, Max!

Did you know Jonathan Zaragoza gave ChefSteps the family birria and consomme recipes? https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/goat-birria

Gosh that photo looks good.

Technically in both clubs! I would have been annoyed if I didn't win the drinks category I was in but am huffing copium for another cooler category where I was nominated. And frankly I forget who won, so there's that!

You're a winner to me! Proud of you and your book. But also RUDE you didn't come say hi to me in Chicago. Huge party foul. Next time, please!

Thank you, Rel!

I honestly had so much stuff packed into two days, didn't think it was feasible. Although I obviously could've dropped a line (ditto for dropping a line to Paul!). I'll do better next time.
