The Postal Service has cooked
up a feast of 20 million Limited Edition Forever stamps featuring Celebrity
Chefs — James Beard, Joyce Chen, Julia Child, Edna Lewis and Edward (Felipe)
Rojas-Lombardi — who revolutionized the nation’s understanding of food. By integrating international ingredients and
recipes with American cooking techniques and influence, these chefs introduced new foods and flavors to the American
culture.
On Wednesday, October 1 at 6 p.m., South Florida’s very own celebrity --- Chef Allen
(Susser), Julia Child’s friend and colleague --- will prepare one of her
legendary desserts at a stamp dedication at Books and Books at 265 Aragon Avenue in Coral Gables. The
dedication and dessert-tasting event will take place in the terrace where Celebrity Chefs stamps may be purchased. (This
is an off-the-clock event for postal employees.)
About Chef Allen …

career goal in the Culinary Arts.
Chef Allen pursued classical cooking techniques from
opportunities and fulfilled a personal goal with tenure in the kitchens of Le
Bristol Hotel in Paris and Le

many culinary accolades.
