America's Top Table Award (Gourmet Magazine)

[edit]

The current reference for this award points to Frog and the Peach's own website. I have removed the reference and added a {{fact}} tag because I don't think the website backs up the details of the award. The replacement of the reference enjoined editors to "click through" and find the details. As far as I can see the closest I can get to the details is on the Accolades page [1] which still doesn't tell us date/year etc. The Gourmet (magazine) site also does not tell us when the award is given or what it means. If this reference is not established I will happily remove it again in the near future for the reasons stated above. Mmoneypenny 16:47, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bruce Lefebvre

[edit]

I have removed the following:

Executive chef

[edit]

Bruce Lefebvre is the executive chef at the Frog and the Peach in New Brunswick, New Jersey. [1] [2]

Bruce Lefebvre was born in Edison, New Jersey and was raised in Sea Girt, New Jersey. At age 15 he worked as dishwasher at The Yankee Clipper. He graduated from Wake Forest University with a degree in English and then applied to the Culinary Institute of America. He worked with The Buckhead Life Group in Atlanta for his externship, a family-owned fine dining organization whose portfolio of restaurants include: The Buckhead Diner, Pano’s and Paul’s, and the Atlanta Fish Market. After graduating from The Culinary Institute of America in 1995, he took a position at The Frog and the Peach. In 1997 he left to work at Aureole (restaurant) with and worked as a stagiere at Daniel and at Lespinasse (restaurant). He became the sous-chef for Dan’s on Main Street in Metuchen, New Jersey and then he returned to the Frog and the Peach as sous-chef in 2000. [3] He was promoted to the executive chef position in the summer of 2001. [4] [5]

The chef currently has his own article (Bruce Lefebvre) and having two pages saying exactly the same thing is not very useful or encyclopaedic. If the AfD fails, the chef's own page can maintain this info and if it stands then perhaps some of this info can be re-added. Mmoneypenny 16:56, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
