Fried Chicken and Champagne

Redmond, Washington's Lisa Dupar has a secret. Well actually, many secrets... which readers will love curling up with, giggling over, and then taking to the kitchen when they read the award winning chef's book, Fried Chicken & Champagne: A Romp Through the Kitchen at Pomegranate Bistro. Born in Mexico, Southern bred, and now a firmly transplanted Pacific Northwesterner, she knows how to spin a tale that is more like an ongoing conversation with a close friend. Dupar is as well-known nationally for her unparalleled reputation as a caterer as she is as a top restaurateur.
