A Drew Brees and John Folse Steakhouse could be coming to proposed Slidell casino
St. Tammany proposal of the casino showed his true character. He sided with the woke to get more money.

Love his recipes. Have his After the Hunt cookbook and use his gumbo recipe exclusively.
Don’t know him personally but I trust his recipes.
Also use his Sensation salad dressing recipe. Simple and tasty

I have no idea what youre talking about. CJF is pretty well regarded in So. LA and across LA.
Sure your not thinking of Emrial? His schtick wore pretty thin.

There is some speculation that he intentionally burned Laffites landing for insurance money.

Maybe he likes things to be done right the first time and doesn't want to do them a 2nd time, or maybe he is detailed-oriented and has a vision and wants it done to his vision. People so downplay someone's intensity as a negative trait!
That is complete bullshite and I think other people who have worked with him will back me up! It isn't like this is new news, hince the thread.

There was a long thread on Folse years ago on F&D. I recall posts that were corroborated by others that said he had his apprentice and sous chefs do most of the work on creating his cookbooks, with no attribution.
There it is......Now that makes sense why GRT and her Cuban husband hate JF

I bet he puts garlic on his corn flakes. He puts it in everything else.

I'm not saying you don't need new friends, but I would have probably just bought it for myself after not getting it the first time.
It's an $80 cookbook, not that $20 Betty Crocker stuff.

He’s an abrasive personality, but a fantastic chef
I was in the equipment sales side of the restaurant industry for several years.
You just described almost all of my customers. I dont know what it is about being a chef but most of them have an abrasive personality and big egos.
As for Folse, I have never heard anything bad until this thread, but I have no experience with him other then dining at his restaurants.
