Chef's News - Lone Star Cocktails Make a Splash

Lone Star Cocktails Make a Splash (Restaurantville Monthly - Jan 01, 2010)

Chef Monica Pope of T’afia in Houston, and the only Texas woman to be named one of the Top Ten Chefs in America by Food & Wine magazine, is a longtime advocate of the local products including spirits. “As a chef, I have spent the last 13 years cooking in one place - Houston, Texas. My cooking style has developed organically from certain fundamental truths:  first, what grows together goes together, and, second, that food simply tastes better when you eat where your food lives.” That goes for drink too.
