MICHAEL WHITE ON THE SMALL SCREEN — Chef/empire builder Michael White explains why he hasn't done much TV: "I turn down everything in TV because I have a responsibility to my partner and staff. If I did, I’d like to do something less commercial and teach on television... I still think there’s room for a chef in a white jacket on TV, and if you think about it we don’t really have that right now." [The Daily Meal]
