A few years ago, I was volunteering with the cycling team for Team in Training to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. One of the participants for the Tucson ride was a man named Luc who happened to be chef/owner of a little French bistro called Soleil Westwood.

It only took one visit for me to be hooked. I had the honor of shooting some images for his menu and an additional honor of him naming a variety of poutine after me – the Poutine Sheridan.

If you are in LA and have the chance, get to Soleil Westwood, you will not be disappointed. Be sure to order the poutine – a decadent French Canadian specialty of French fries covered with gravy and cheese curds.
