Beautiful. Sometimes that is how you have to describe food. One particular month, the cover of Bon appetit magazine particularly caught my eye. Not only did the dish on the cover look amazing, it happened to have been prepared by one of my favorite Chefs and at one of my favorite restaurants. I’ve been a…

Duo of Greenbrier Farms Lamb at American Grocery
I always enjoy a visit to my favorite restaurant in Greenville, American Grocery. This particular trip was a date night and just happen to be our two week wedding anniversary. Jen and I both agreed we need a break, and Jen suggested AGR. It might have had something to do with them having Paella on…
Steak Frites with Blood Orange, Beet and Fennel Salad
I get the magazine Bon Appétit at home. It is one of the few print publications I still read. At least once an issue, I’ll see something that I become obsessed to make.

When I was invited to the Farm to Table Dinner that featured all three I was ecstatic. One of my favorite Chefs preparing food from my favorite farm, pared…
Hanger Steak, Whipped Garlic Potatoes, Mushrooms and Red Zinfandel Reduction
Sometime I just crave beef. I know, but sometimes I just do. When this is the case I generally look for the best and serve it rare as possible. On this day I was flipping through the October 2011 edition of Bon Appetit magazine looking for something easy to make and came across this recipe…
