Thomas
Keller Opening Retail Store in Yountville, CA
By FBWorld Team
Thomas
Keller is adding shopkeeper to his resume:
Tomorrow, the celebrated chef will debut a 450-square-foot
store called Finesse, The Store in Yountville, CA, Inside
Scoop SF reports. The shop - located near Keller's
Bouchon and French Laundry - will sell "Keller-branded
goods," signed cookbooks, apparel, seeds from the
French Laundry garden, and kitchen tools like a $900 limited
edition MAC knife set. The store shares a name with Keller's
magazine, which will of course be on sale at the shop,
too.
This
isn't Keller's first foray into retail, however. He has
been a
shill for Avis,
developed a gluten-free
flour (which will be sold at Finesse), and created
Per Se and French Laundry-themed holiday
gift sets. Silver
French Laundry clothespins, anyone?
