“Heidi Knapp Rinella is a highly acclaimed professional food writer and, in my personal opinion, one of the best in the field, whether in Las Vegas, which she calls home, or nationally, of which she regularly has a purview. Her treatment of the chefs in this book provides not only insightful and inspiring profiles of each but also includes the ambiance and inspiration of each of their establishments. The addition of individual chef’s personal favorites makes this all the more fun to read and use.”
