"With the 12-year partnership of Paul Hoather behind the stove and Andrew Cameron directing traffic, you have a near-perfect combination that delivers very delicious and precious goods. Among Wellington’s small clutch of the finest.
 
… so if you have a list of 10 things you must do
before you depart this mortal coil,
make The White House one of them."
