Rue la la invitation

One of my favorite online shopping sites, Rue La La, frequently offers great deals on everything from All Clad pots & pans, Cuisinart and KitchenAid appliances, German and Japanese cutlery, Staub, Le Creuset, and Mauviel copper cookware โ€“ all at amazing prices! (They also have fine linens, designer clothing, tableware, and wine accessories.)

You never know what you might find and the specials happen daily โ€“ but the good stuff goes fast, so be prepared.

If youโ€™re interested, here is an invitation to Rue La La, so that you can check out their great sales!

    David,

    Welcome back to the states โ€“ hope your trip is all you hope for!

    We have traded a couple messages re: signed books and I am glad to say that I think it is finally worked outโ€ฆโ€ฆ. YEAH! Celia at Omnivore Books has agreed to get a couple signed for me and shipped to me โ€“ I am very excited about this and am looking forward to adding The Perfect Scoop and The Great Book Of Chocolate (signed by the author no less!!!!) to my collection!

    Wish I could come by the signing in person โ€“ it would be great to say โ€œhelloโ€. Oh well โ€“ I will just have to settle for the books!

    I enjoy your blog and always look forward to seeing what food adventures you are up to โ€“ thanks for sharing!!!!!

    Travel safe and enjoy your visit!

    David,
    So excited you are back in the Bay Area, but thanks to FB and your website it feels like youโ€™re still close. ANYway โ€“ I will be at BlogHer Food and hope to meet you before or after the keynote (maybe at cocktail reception?) I live amongst your pals Steve Sando and Terry Hall (name dropping!) but specifically am trying to redefine my niche in the blogosphere. Yours is the desired effect.
    Thanks and hopefulโ€ฆKS

    Thanks for the great recipes and funny stories. As an American wishing I were in Paris, your blog is a welcome addition to my days.

    Any chance of a book signing at Powellโ€™s (Portland) sometime in the future?

    Best,
    Julie

    • Joy

    Ooh, good timing. I just got here in SF. Will try to stop by tomorrow if I donโ€™t get lost! My copy of the book is all the way in Vancouverโ€ฆdang.

    • FRESH LOCAL AND BEST

    Ugh! I wish I was still in San Francisco! I would have loved to meet you in person. I enjoy your blog and humor, immensely, and I admire your accomplishments!

    • Jo Lynne

    Iโ€™ll walk down to Fog City News (two blocks). Iโ€™d love to buy you a coffee or something stronger, if you have a moment.

    What a list of options! While I would have loved to be at blogher, I am going to be spending the weekend on the Russian River with friends. I look forward to seeing you at Omnivore. Soak up the coffee and internet while you can!

    David,

    Looking forward to seeing you at Fog City News. I just delivered the Valrhona chocolate for sampling during your event. Iโ€™ll be picking up copies of Sweet Life for you to sign as gifts for a few of my Paris and food-loving friends.

    Safe travels,
    Deborah

    • Katy

    David really looking forward to hearing your talk at the Blogher Conference. I am new to you book The Perfect Scoop and loving every experiment!

    • Linda Yuen

    Hi David- I am looking forward to seeing you at Fog City News. I have already purchased Sweet Life (not expecting a tour) but hope the Chocolate book will be available. Linda Y.

    • Faith Kramer

    Look forward to meeting my hero (i.e. โ€” you) at one of these events.
    I will probably be one of a crowd at BlogHer

    Sorry I wonโ€™t be able to make San Francisco but thank you for the book recommendationโ€“ I just ordered it from Scribo(, qpprox. 27 euro, much better than Amazon)
    God, can I use this book! Just returned from Paris and while I can certainly get by in most situations, restaurant menuโ€™s put me in a near panic..they do seem to wax poetic with descriptions. Most notably at Lโ€™Epi Dupin, great meal, but really had no idea what was going to end up in front of me!

    Love your blog,
    juliann

    • BarbF

    MOST EXCELLENT!! Iโ€™m right down the street, next block. Will stop by tomorrow to reserve a book for myself, and look forward to seeing you next week!!

    • Sandra

    Yummm! Check out Dopo on Piedmont Ave for great Italian food.

    • Charlene

    Hi David!! I am in the Bay area again, but in the North Bay. It would be fun to see you at one of the events! I just went to Fog City News this past Monday & it reminded me of you. Also just happened to pick up a copy of โ€œAfarโ€ magazine and smiled to read your quotes in one of the articles. (I had to read about โ€˜Becoming a Boulanger in Parisโ€™!) Will try to stop in to Fog City News or the Omnivore Books.
    safe travels
    a hug from Charlene :-)

    • Maryann Guerra

    Oh I wish I could be home, especially now that you are in the Bay Area! I miss home so much :(

    Maybe one of these times I will make a trip back to Sonoma when you are in SF!

    • Elizabeth

    Any chance youโ€™ll make it over to Berkeley?

    • Kerrin @ MyKugelhopf

    Hey David, enjoy your trip and all these great events! Bet youโ€™re thrilled to be visiting. Itโ€™s Street-Food Week on Gourmet.com, with a different city each day. Yesterday was SF! Just thought that would be fun for you to check out โ€“ and while youโ€™re there no less. Enjoy !!

    • david

    Elizabeth: I will be in Emeryville tonight, which is just next door.

    hi Charlene: Glad you liked the story in Afar! Stop by if youโ€™re in the neighborhood!

    Julian: Yes, itโ€™s a great book. Am glad the publisher is willing to ship direct.

    • Risamay

    Oh! Oh! Oh! What a treat. Hope I can make it tomorrow at Fog City. If not (and if I canโ€™t swing any of your other local dates), my hope is still to wine and dine you in Paris for a meet and greet, and private signing.

    • Steve in ORD

    Shall we look for you at the fair perhaps? ;)

    • pam

    Any chance youโ€™ll be swinging over to the middle of the country and stopping by Soddy Daisy, TN? Any chance at all? :)

    • Risamay

    It was a pleasure to meet you in person. Perhaps I should have said that I work with Anita Crotty of Married with Dinner โ€ฆ Oh vell. I hate coming off as just another one of your no doubt many commenter-stalkers. Alas, I am also shy (and awkward) in person when I donโ€™t really know someone. No matter! The plaisir was all mine. Cheers.

    P.S. The chocolate shop that I insist you visit is VizioVirtรน. I had the great honor of meeting both the owner, Mariangela, and her mother. Mariangela is an incredible chocolatier and I think you will be both pleased and impressed with her work when and if you do make it to her little slice of dark decadence in Venice.

    Iโ€™m so disappointed that I wonโ€™t be able to come to any of your events because Iโ€™m still mostly flat on my back after spine surgery in August. I just finished โ€œSweet Life in Parisโ€ and have dog-eared so many recipes. Having lived in Paris for short stints, the book made me so nostalgic. AND, you are the first person that I have heard agree with my assessment that the best tarte tatin in Paris is, oddly enough, at Berthillon โ€“ Iโ€™m dreaming of it now. I saw your quote about it in the latest โ€œDeparturesโ€ magazine about Paris, too. If you are down on the Peninsula, post it on your blog โ€“ I could make it to something closer to me! Have a great visit.
