Maybe some of those well-paid MVLA teachers and MVWSD administrators will get a chance to eat at Chez TJ. :-)

Teachers and State workers unions have been an unmitigated disaster for California.
It's actually quite ironic that the tax payer pays these peoples' salaries which they then use to pay their union dues, so that they can extort more money from the tax payer.
Unfortunately, many people in this state believe that an endless supply of money comes from the magical money well.
Keep in mind that in 3% of the state's population pay 60% of the taxes (2004 data). I wonder what will happen when they get fed up with the state's grand socialist experiment?

Eli,
Perhaps you'd like to go back to school and become a teacher in one of those school districts ;)

When I first moved here years ago I had a few fabulous meals at Chez TJ but now they go for those annoying tasting menus (many courses of small pretentious portions). I know the 'foodies' go mad for this but I would love it if they also offered a regular menu, a few salads and entrees to choose from. Maybe George and Scott will come up with something new that will encourage the locals to dine there more frequently.
Have no idea why the other posts are talking about teachers and unions...let's stay on topic people.

My husband and I love Chez TJ. He proposed to me there seven years ago! It is wonderful to have this level of restaurant so nearby in our community for our special occasions. Their hardworking and dedicated staff always make us feel very welcome and special. That the chef uses local ingredients is also a plus!
