He recounts his days of opening a restaurant with Ian Schrager of Studio 54 at the Royalton Hotel, which became the “it” restaurant for CEOs, magazine editors, fashion designers, and celebrities. Geoffrey tells incredible stories of bold face names, like cooking a rare burger and mashed potatoes every day for Anna Wintour, his super-secret French fry trick for Calvin Klein, Karl Lagerfeld’s obsession with his salmon tartare, and opening a restaurant with Madonna.
