Coup de Chef Mark!

"AUDIENCE APPLAUSE!"

Kudos go out to Chef Mark, my one and only sib, for happenings in his culinary career. He has recently been appointed the Executive Chef at the cool and quirky So Restaurant and Bar in Little Rock. It's the newest and most happening hip eatery in the city and it's getting witty, rave reviews from restaurant critics and discerning foodies alike.

I, myself have had the good fortune to have the So experience twice- both late night and late lunch. The service is truly friendly, the interior a serene Tuscan-zen sort of haven, and the food...well the food is delish. So's signature Chocolate Sack is the only dessert that you'll ever enjoy where the waiter will be trying to wrench the plate from your clutched fingers as you beg on your knees for more. The entree's are elegantly yummy. And, best of all, you won't have to take a trip to Carnegie Deli in New York to experience to-die-for cheesy creaminess (or mastermind the management of their famous 2lb. pastrami sandwich). So's own cheesecake is a trip to the Big Apple right at your table. Pinky swear! I've had both tastes of heaven and they are parallel cheesecake universes.

But if you don't believe an amateur like me, who also luckily happens to be the Executive Chef's only sib, who possibly could be a tad bit biased, you can Siskel and Ebert it for yourself. SPORK REPORT
