  1. To whom it may concern. I am the Dean of Culinary at the Resturant School at Walnut Hill College, in Philadelphia PA. I am trying to contact Chef Steven Richards. I have a few questions to ask him in regards to our Italian Resturant at the school. Could you please forward him this letter and e-mail address. Thank you
