Lamb


Lamb loin
Charred eggplant puree
Pearl onion
peas
raw asparagus
red pepper jus

The red pepper jus is just reduced juice of red bell pepper,  it has a concentrated sweetness and I added vinegar to balance it out and it almost tastes like BBQ sauce,  the red color only helps to trick your mind into thinking its BBQ sauce.

scallop and onions


This is a seared scallop  with multiple varieties of onions,  so often does the onion play the roll of the back up singer to other ingredients, I wanted the onion to be front and center.

Scallop
green onion and pea shoot juice
charred scallion
caramelized pearl onion
pickled ramps
braised mustard seeds
