I am deeply saddened to hear of the untimely death of chef Naomi Pomeroy. She was always a welcome presence at judges table, and I was blessed to get to know this inspiring woman over the years.
Heartbroken doesn't cut it. I first met Naomi Pomeroy the night she won her @foodandwine Best New Chef award in 2009. In fact, the internet reminded me today that I was the one who handed it to her.
Simmons described Pomeroy as a person who 'fought hard always - for her industry, her friends and loved ones.'
