Yan Can Cook... or can he?

Last night, Dan and I went to the Sunnyvale Library to see Martin Yan give a cooking presentation. Oops, excuse me... "cooking" presentation.

From 7-8pm, he was cracking jokes (particularly at this one black fellow) and just skinning and julienning and slicing vegetables while promoting his Shun knife. Growing up using multiple Shun knives that vary in terms of $$$, I doubt his is really that great.

Anyway, his real cooking presentation lasted maybe a good 10 minutes? Kung pao chicken and beef with bell peppers. I think I'm going to make one of those this week since 1) we have all the ingredients in the fridge and 2) if Yan can cook, so can Ede!

btw, since he's doing this presentation at a LIBRARY, FREE of charge... that can only mean one thing, he's going downhill... but it was cool seeing him in person after watching him all those years on PBS growing up.
