A 2024 RETV news segment documented Kartupelis Gardēdim (Potato for Gourmets), a Michelin-level potato dinner conceived by Jeffrey Allen Price and realized with chef Edgars Rubenis in Cēsis, Latvia.
There is a really great news story (in Latvian) by RETV about the “Potato for Gourmet” dinner that took place at Michelin Star restaurant H.E. Vanadziņš Ziemeļu restorāns on March 1, 2024. They interviewed the brilliant chef Edgars Rubenis and showed some excellent footage of the meal preparations and some of his finished Potato masterpieces. Includes a lot of images of the Potato plant decorations/accents provided by Ilze Dimante and an interview with Cesis inside director Sigita Kletniece, who enabled the Potato dinner event as liaison and moderator. They even interviewed Potato Artist, Džefrijs Alens Praiss (Jeffrey Allen Price), whose idea for the dinner was the seed that grew into this historic feast — a dining experience that even Parmentier would have been impressed and delighted by.
