About Expat Steve
San Francisco native now living near Chinon, France in the Loire Valley. Renovating an abandoned farm property and enjoying life away from the maddening crowd.

Hi Steve, Thanks for the informative porcini mushroom information on the Goat Cheese and Porcini Mushroom recipe- we would love this information on the Porcini Mushroom food detailed page! Or adding this information under a new technique for reconstituting dried porcini mushroom? Would you mind adding this valuable information? I think all our users could benefit from your expertise!
Wow Steve,
I'm thrilled to hear that 2009 will be an excellent vintage! We are launching a guest wine blogger tomorrow on our blog, so you will have to stay tuned. We would love to have more French wine information too, if you are up for the challenge!
