LA Times The Taste: Stella needs to Get Her Chill Back

What was up with Stella Artois? Uptight, veering toward tyrannical, the Stella presence at LA Times The Taste definitely didn't fit with the groove. First there was the anal cheese selector/beer sommelier Marc Stroobandt who demanded that guests have a beer in their hand before getting a cube of cheese. He barked at the female pourers, "Cidre!" as if they were his slaves. I've never seen someone so uppity because he cuts cheese. What an ass.


Then at the end of the event when all guests wanted were some of the glassware discards, the idiot volunteer made people join the beer line. "Chef rules." The thing is the chefs had abandoned the booth long ago.
Get over the rigidity, Stella. Otherwise, you're just sour and flat.
