...cabrit (goat in sauce, $6.50) without even glancing at the menu. My companion choose tasso boeuf (beef marinated and cooked under a low flame, $6.50), and we both opted for a side order of fried plantains ($2.00). The meal began with a skimpy and unexciting salad: iceberg lettuce, shredded carrot and green pepper, served with honey mustard dressing. The goat and beef arrived, accompanied by the usual red beans and rice and fried plantains. The goat meat was tender yet chewy, soaked in the signature onion and green pepper sauce.

...Right then. In his parents' living room. Essany got a slot on local-cable-access television, persuaded Mom to run the camera, put a backdrop of the Manhattan skyline behind his desk and over the next six years managed to book actual celebrities, including Jeff Foxworthy and Carrot Top. Well, all right, they're actual celebrities compared with any you could book into your living room. It's both inspirational and creepy. Essany's dedication is amazing, but what he's dedicated to--transforming himself into a pitch-perfect rendition of a coolly ironic, middle-aged show-biz pro--seems...
