Hubert Keller is Coming to St. Louis

My Google news feelers reeled this one in from KWMU this evening:
There’s a Maria Hickey interview as well if you follow the link. I’m wondering if this is two of the places on hand at Taste of St. Louis from Lumiere. I’ll report back tomorrow as I admittedly did not listen to the interview. Great chef that he is, I still find Hubert Keller a little annoying. edit: I also just found this more detailed article from the St. Louis Business Journal. It looks like I may get several $40 entrées out of this one, though I don’t think St. Louis is ready for the $60 Kobe Burger just yet. |
From the mountains of Panama and Ethiopia, to the urban-jungles of Portland and Chicago, journalist Michaele Weissman takes us behind the scenes for a look at the world of third-wave specialty coffee. How did we get to Starbucks, and where we go from here?

I knew the sketchy details of Hubert’s plans, but the KWMU interview was the first definite word I’d heard. Thanks for the link to the Business-Journal article.
The interview itself was okay — though I cringed to hear Maria Hickey say something along the lines of “Why St. Louis? We Midwesterns aren’t foodies, you know?” All that was missing was a Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel-type guffaw.
