Happy Birthday, Michael Ruhlman! May your day be seasoned with laughter and garnished generously with joy. From exploring the soul of chefs to surviving Anthony Bourdain’s sharp wit on No Reservations, you've shown us that cooking is not just an art—it's a deliciously chaotic adventure.Your books have whisked readers behind kitchen doors for decades; clearly you’ve mastered "The Making," "The Soul," and even “The Reach” of being awesome at birthdays too. Here's hoping this year brings fewer culinary fires (unless they're televised) and more perfectly plated successes!
Cheers to another flavorful chapter ahead—you truly are chef's kiss-worthy!
