Stanley Tucci (Hunger Games, Julie & Julia, Big Night, etc.) is a lot of fun, and gives his secret for a better martini – substitute scotch for vermouth. I tried it. It’s better.
A series I’m working on is now live – “On The Table,” starring Eric Ripert, legendary chef from Le Bernardin. You might recognize some of the music. Future episodes will feature some of the biggest names in music, art and, of course, food.
