Scott Cohen, the former chef of New Yorks swank and trendy supper club Tatou, can now be found at the Stanhope Hotel, across from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The New Jersey-born chef developed his casually elegant style of cooking by working at Le Moulin de Mougins in the south of France and the Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas. He describes his cuisine as "American Provencal." Chefs note: "Cooking Light has adapted two of my favorite recipes--my Roasted Vegetable Tart and my Polenta Cake With Roasted Vegetable Vinaigrette--into one great, easy-to-make-at- home version. Its wonderful hot out of the oven or served at room temperature." Recipe by: Cooking Light, Jul/Aug 1995, page 123 Posted to MC-Recipe Digest V1 #410 by igor@digex.net on Jan 28, 1997.
