Roasted Duck Breast at Dudley’s on Short
I tried to make this at home, sort of. Roasted duck, caramelized sweet potatoes, watercress, green apple “kimchi” with a bourbon-maple gastrique Trips to visit my wife’s family takes us right through Kentucky.

SC Mahi Mahi and Shrimp, Grilled Carrots and Kale, Potato Puree with Basil Pesto

Greenbrier Farm to Table Dinner with Hedges Wine and Stella’s Southern Bistro
It was a chilly night, not a usual thing on March 6th in the upstate of South Carolina. Never the less it was cold; to the point they had a pit fire and big outdoor space heater going instead the barn. We love Greenbrier Farms; it is an awesome place ran by awesome folks and…

Chorizo Tacos
Chorizo, cotija, onion, cilantro and jalapeno. Those simple ingredients are all you need for some of the best tacos I’ve had. In this country tacos tend to be loaded down with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, salsa, etc. No need here, simple is just fine. There is a little restaurant here in Greenville, SC called…
Kale, Green Garlic and Mushroom Pizza
