In case you missed it, I was on The Wendy Williams Show on Tuesday, September 28th to compete in a Top Chef: Just Desserts segment with my NYC Nom Nom Double Trouble Peanut Butter Cup.  Two other audience members and I put our desserts up against each other to be judged by Wendy Williams, Gail Simmons, and Johnny Iuzzini.  It was a blast!

NYC Restaurant Week Highlights

• Restaurant Week Wrap-Up: An on-going list of where to go for NYC RW (Updated Winter 2015)
