  4. A potluck kind of year

    If only it were so easy to pithily proclaim 2012 as the Year of the (fill-in-the-blank).

  6. Our work to cover Charlie Trotter's retirement

    Even on a typical night in Charlie Trotter&rsquo;s dining room, if a single detail was off, there were consequences. To hear it from some of the cooks and wait staff who worked in his venerable Lincoln Park restaurant, any such misstep could set off fireworks worthy of Navy Pier. Trotter could be generous to a fault, but just as incendiary.

  9. Rare treats

    Rodrick Markus reached for the top shelf of a metal cabinet at the back of his office. &quot;I know, I know, I know," he said to himself. His fingers worked across a row of jars and stopped at a tall glass cylinder. I had asked him about rare ingredients. Rare ingredients is about 40 percent of what he does. He locates tough-to-acquire things for chefs who, being chefs, want something especially bad when they are told it will be impossible to get. Rare vegetables, salts, oils, spices, nuts, fish eggs &mdash; he finds the guy who locates the guy who heard of the guy who knows the guy who knows about, say, a place in the Pacific Northwest where, with the right permit at the right time, you can forage for a rare pine bark that grows 25 feet in the air.
