Bread and Butter
Brothers Leo and Britt are co-owners of Winesap, a popular restaurant in their small, economically depressed hometown on the outskirts of Philadelphia. They have always considered their younger sibling, Harry, a bit of a dilettante.  While they’ve been chained to a hot stove, Harry has flitted in and out of academia and flirted with one career after another.  So imagine their surprise when Harry announces that he’s opening a restaurant of his own, virtually right down the street.  Is Linden big enough for two family enterprises?  Can Harry stand the heat or will he have to get out of the kitchen?  As the brothers test this recipe for potential disaster, they break a few industry rules (never date the help or the clients), push the culinary envelope (lambs’ necks, anyone?), and eventually learn the true meaning of family, friendship, and the secret to a killer soufflé.  Food journalist Wildgen has the professional chops to whip up a debut delicacy that’s as complex as a rich cassoulet and as comforting as good ol’ mac-and-cheese. --Carol Haggas
