Are you a chef?

No, but I play one on TV. Seriously, no, I’m not. But Frans Hagen, the RAMW-EF founder, is a chef and a 40-year member of the Restaurant Association. I only cook twice a year, for my wife, on Valentine’s Day and six months later. But when I do cook, it’s a big deal. Although, once I caught a rubber spatula on fire.
