My Dinner with Pavel Cookin' It Up in Deer Valley
Pavel moved to Italy some years back to join a road racing team. His coach advised that he live with an Italian family to learn the language because in Italy, "language is everything." Pavel lived with a family that ran a small hotel/restaurant where he not only became fluent in the language, but spent enough time in the kitchen to learn all about authentic Italian cuisine and how it's cooked.
The meal consisted of bruschetta of two flavors, one with anchovies; risotto with three types of mushrooms, an eclectic salad with varied greeneries and salmon roasted in garlic. The wine came from team mechanic Scott Stewart's recent wedding which ironically was called "Ca'del Solo," meaning Cadel going it alone. Cadel Evans is the number one ranked cross country racer in the world and was a member of this squad last year.
After dinner, we all sat down to watch "Swingers" and realized that we were "money and we didn't even know it."
