gerry frank's picks

Gerry Frank is uniquely qualified to write the best-selling complete guide to New York, Gerry Frank’s Where To Find It, Buy It, Eat It in New York. As a fourth-generation member of one of the nation’s leading retailing families, he spent several decades in the merchandising field. As a graduate of Cambridge University in England, and as Chief of Staff to U.S. Senator Mark Hatfield, he has visited over 150 countries, dined with commoners, kings, queens, and princes, and has experienced the best (and worst) dining, service, and shopping in very major city in the world. Frank was named Oregon’s Premier Citizen by the state’s governor, and as proprietor of Gerry Frank’s Konditorei in the Pacific Northwest, he knows the food and restaurant businesses from grocery shelves to tables.

Gerry and I met while doing restaurant reviews on Good Day Oregon in a segment called Ken & Gerry's. Our friendship has continued through the years. I am thrilled to have Gerry share his restaurant expertise with you. Enjoy!
