-Marina del Rey, Ca.
-Scouters have put up $750,000 in the latest contract deal for the controversy-mired chef Stephen Dreim in a vain and desperate attempt to rehire the haughty culinary master who may have alienated too many of his fellow chefs to be welcomed back warmly.
Dreim set an offer minimum of $750,000 Thursday, and it took all weekend long for Feast Fest to determine whether they wished to respond or to simply drop the matter.
Very late Sunday, following extensive deliberation, scouters decided to offer up a contract for exactly that amount. Never mind it's $197,000 more than he was originally scheduled to make, and never mind that in a recent poll 81% of chefs viewed Dreim negatively; the scouters seem intent on snaring him back.
The deal, however, is only for one year, so that scouters and Dreim could revisit the situation in the offseason. "We're just doing this to patch up the situation for this Thanksgiving," an unnamed scouter said.
Dreim has yet to comment.
