We usually prefer it when it&#8217;s just the two of us.  Friday nights are the best because there&#8217;s never anyone at the pool and we can pretty much do whatever we want.  Tonight, there were a few people when we got there.  There were a couple of guys with two little kids and then there was this guy with two girls.<\/p>\n<p>After a while, the two guys with the two little kids left so it was just the five of us at the pool &#8212; Brian and me, and the guy with the two women.  I thought the guy looked really familiar.  The three of them were speaking Spanish on and off, but I couldn&#8217;t help but overhear some of their conversation.  The ladies kept calling him Jason, so I began to wonder if it was Chef Jason of Taste &#038; See (formerly of Sabor).<\/p>\n<p>I asked Brian if he thought the guy looked familiar.  He agreed.  I told him that I thought it might Chef Jason.  We both agreed that he looked just like him.  I was too embarrassed to ask, though.  I didn&#8217;t want him to think that I was stalking him.  Though he is a bit of a celebrity.  At least in my book.  He is like a food God.  Everything he makes is delicious!<\/p>\n<p>I remember eating <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brubakers.us\/foodies\/?p=81\" >his delicious dishes at Sabor<\/a> three years ago.  I kept going back.  I think he&#8217;s actually partially responsible for making me fat.  Him and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brubakers.us\/foodies\/?p=792\" >Joe at Carrabba&#8217;s<\/a>.  And a few other restaurants in town.  LOL.  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.foodiesblog.info\" >We used to eat out a lot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This year I found out through Gina Ann that he&#8217;s doing cooking classes at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brubakers.us\/foodies\/?p=1145\" >Taste &#038; See<\/a>.  A few months ago, he started serving lunch at the cooking school.   If you&#8217;ve never been there, you have to try it!  The food is amazing!  Now is actually the best time to go because <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tasteandseeict\" >he&#8217;s doing a special on FourSquare<\/a>.  I wouldn&#8217;t have known about it, if it weren&#8217;t for Gina Ann.<\/p>\n<p>Chef Jason also has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cookingschoolsofamerica.com\/tasteandsee\/index.php?flag_menu_index=reservation_php#159\" >a couple of cooking classes coming up<\/a>.  Brian and I are already registered for the sushi class, which is on Saturday, August 27.  We also want to do the tapas class at the end of September.  We haven&#8217;t signed up for that one yet, though.  I&#8217;m really looking forward to learning how to make sushi so we can start making sushi for dinner.  I&#8217;ve yet to meet a fat Japanese person so it can&#8217;t be that bad for you.  =P<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of celebrities, we also got to meet <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Marielkis-Salazar\/154597774604149\" >Marielkis Salazar<\/a> of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kwch.com\/about\/station\/newsteam\/\" >Univision Kansas<\/a>.  She is super nice!  So nice, in fact, that I might start watching Univision Kansas from now on.  I think it might help me improve my Spanish.  LOL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Brian and I went to the pool tonight, we were disappointed to find people there.
