Another experiment in the books! This one was with Chef Christopher Lee, the multiple Michelin-starred chef who recently took over the kitchen of one of Miami's real grand dame restaurants, The Forge. You can read recaps at Food For Thought and The Chowfather and see pictures in this Cobaya Forge flickr set. Here's the menu he put together for a group of thirty guinea pigs in the Forge's Library room:
