I was 7 months pregnant but I told my husband nothing and no one was going to stop me from getting on the airplane and going to French Laundry. I thought about bringing Keller's book with us but it's so heavy and what are the chances that Keller would be there... The food was incredible, the setting beautiful and they let us see the kitchen... where we got to meet Thomas Keller himself. I knew I should have brought the damn book with us.</p> I ate at French Laundry a few years ago — a special treat arranged by my sister to celebrate her husband graduating from his PhD program.
