America's Test Kitchen sent me a couple of reminders that Chris will be in New York City promoting Baking Illustrated, the latest Best Recipe Classic.

Here's the email:

"You're Invited!

We are pleased to invite you to a book signing, chocolate tasting and discussion with Christopher Kimball, the founder and editor of Cook’s Illustrated magazine and host of the America’s Test Kitchen television series. Mr. Kimball will be discussing Baking Illustrated, the newest book from America’s Test Kitchen.

TIME:
Thursday, April 1 at 7:00 PM

LOCATION:
Barnes & Noble
Lincoln Center
1972 Broadway (66th and Broadway)
New York, NY 10023

Phone: 212.595.6859"

The "Mr. Kimball" thing cracks me up: does Chris really like being called "Mr. Kimball"? He doesn't strike me as a "Mr." kind of guy. When we met him at "The Kitchen Detective" book signing last fall he was really friendly and down to earth, chatting warmly with all the attendees.

Oh, and it looks like we even get to taste chocolate, that's a nice little bonus.
