Ruth's Chris: Origins

So Randy Fertel's book officially dropped yesterday, and the Times-Pic's Judy Walker has the background on the writing of The Gorilla Man and the Empress of Steak. Fertel is quoted as saying, "It's kind of 'Kitchen Confidential' with lawsuits," that just about everyone involved in the Ruth's Chris empire ended up suing his mother, including Randy himself. (Bonus: Octavia Books is hosting a reading and signing with Fertel on Tuesday.) [TP]
