I had rolls you made and was trying to tell someone how yummy they are. But I don't know what they are called. They are a dinner roll with a spice that is black specs.

Well, it's that time again! Kid's camp will be July 19-23 and a second Kid's Camp August 2-6. Last year was lots of fun. This year we will work with some international cuisine and learn some exciting new dishes. Take a look at some of our photos from last year!

The new website is a culmination of many weeks of effort to incorporate the many facets of Chic Le Chef into a single source of information for everything we do. The older format was becoming too difficult to manage and we couldn't get information out to our friends fast enough.

For those of you familiar with our online purchasing for classes and take out dinners, nothing has changed. Everything else about the website is completely different.

You'll notice an Activities Calendar in the right column. Everything we do is contained in that calendar. The public can see public events, and by simply moving the mouse over any of the bold faced calendar days, you'll see a popup description of the event. If you click on a bold faced date, you'll get a page of the scheduled day and details of the event.  This is a great way to keep track of what's happening in the Chic Le Chef world.

Also, in the right column, you'll find RSS feeds with "foodie" news and recipes, which changes on a daily basis.  If you would like to keep track of what's happening on a daily basis with us, at the bottom of the web page is an RSS button. Clicking on that button will allow you to subscribe to our RSS feed and when updates happen on the website, you'll be notified instantly.  Many of our friends, clients and customers have mobile phones with RSS capabilities. This will allow you to get our menu updates and Chic Le Chef news as it happens.

Also, because so many people have contributed to our activities on such a regular basis, we've incorporated a new feature that allows our readers to comment on articles and add their own views directly to the website.

We're hoping this will encourage more of our readers to participate in this phenomenon and share their experiences with us.

Also, you'll notice some banner ads for local businesses on our website. They change each time you display a page. So, they're not static. Try hitting the "refresh" button at the top of your browser and see what happens to the ads.  Non of these ads are paid advertising. They're simply people we've dealt with in our business and if you'd like to see your business in these ads, then simply drop us a line, and let us know. We'd appreciate a mention on your website as well, but it's not a hard rule.

Finally, as we all know, things change. We're hoping this new format will allow us to continue to grow and change as events around us affect how we adapt. As always we want to include as many things as we can and share with everyone around us. So stay tuned - there's more to come!
