Chef Tom could light up a room with laughter; he loved cooking, it was truly his passion. This book is a collection of stories about the famous people he catered to and what they loved to eat along with some of his most loved recipes. His Cheesecake recipe and his Prime Rib Au Jus recipes were his specialty. His cheesecake recipe made eight cheesecakes. We used to sell hundreds of them at Christmastime.
