Chef Dan Barber with one day's worth of food on a sunny summer day in downstate New York, outside New York City. (Dan Barber is featured in the book What I Eat; Around the World in 80 Diets.) Members of his kitchen staff, and farm staff from the Stone Barns Center for Food & Agriculture hold the equivalent of a day's worth of tastings that he does spoon by spoon in the restaurant kitchen during the day's food preparation. He is executive chef of the restaurant Blue Hill at Stone Barns, in Pocantico Hills, New York, and the Blue Hill Restaurant in New York City.
