Jenn Louis is chef/co-owner of Lincoln Restaurant (http://www.lincolnpdx.com/), Sunshine Tavern (http://www.sunshinepdx.com/) & catering company Culinary Artistry (http://www.culinaryartistry.net/) in Portland, OR.
Things you should know about Jenn:
1. She makes my favorite baked eggs (http://www.culinate.com/articles/features/how_to_bake_eggs).
2. She is an aspiring drummer: “The latest beat that I am learning (YAY!) is from the Decembrists, Sporting Life. (My superb drum teacher is Rachel Blumberg*, used to be in the Decembrists, plays with M Ward now and has her artwork in Sunshine!)”

On Saturday (that would be October 1), I moderated the first (of more? here’s hoping) Skirt Steak Panel (subtitled—because today, a simple title alone is not enough—How [Women] Chefs Get the Job Done). Perched on the stools beside me were Traci Des Jardins (http://tracidesjardins.com/), Carla Hall (http://www.carlahall.com/), Anita Lo (http://www.annisarestaurant.com/) and Amanda Cohen (hold, please). The latter, one of the best chef-bloggers in the ‘biz, posted a recap the way that only she can. It’s folded into her description of the Meatball Madness your-vegetarian-ball-can’t-compete shindig she participated in a few nights prior (both events were part of the New York City Wine and Food Festival, aka NYCWFF). Take a look, have a giggle, and click on the bonus link (http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2011/10/02/female-chefs-dish-at-the-new-york-city-wine-and-food-festival/) for more coverage.
