Here's another feature I've added to the Radio Kitchen:  "Ask Chef Mike/Chef Mike Asks".  Find it at Forums.RadioKitchen.net.  It's an interactive message board where we can discuss news and views about food, wine and cooking.  One of the ways I'm going to implement  this new Forum is by incorporating some of the articles I'm always finding on food, wine and cooking and spark some dialogue.  I'll be posting links to articles and soliciting your thoughts and responses.

This is a great way to build a community here in the Radio Kitchen.  I invite you to take a moment and register in the forums.  I know that professional cooks and novice home cooks alike visit the Radio Kitchen on a regular basis, so the knowledge base is great.  Registration is as simple as coming up with a username, a password for your information protection, providing your email address and that's it!  If you wish to share more and create a full profile, that would be awesome, but not entirely necessary.  And just FYI, I do not use the email addresses gathered for any other purpose but to communicate to you about the Radio Kitchen or your experience in the website.  I do not buy or sell lists, and never will.

Come and be a part of the Radio Kitchen.  If you have a question about food, wine and cooking, this is your forum.  Please, ask away.  If I don’t have the answer, I'm sure someone in the community can answer your question.  Comments and links are also a terrific way for you to participate.  Let's make this a meeting and information place. 

I won't offer a list of rules and regs for the Radio Kitchen Forums except to say, keep in mind the ultimate rule:  Treat others the way you want to be treated.  Have respect and be considerate.  That's really all there is to the rules.  Oh, and the buck stops with me.  Break the simple rules, and I will deal appropriately.
