“Now a short digression: If you wanted to create a fictional foil for Alice Waters, you’d have to invent Roberta’s. These guys love to smoke pot and drink shots…in the restaurant…while it is open for business…with their customers. They cop a motorcycle gang style, which for all I know is completely authentic. They claim to have zero professional experience and are completely self-taught. They break the law and brag about it. And, despite all of that, their philosophy of food is not all that far from Alice Waters.”
