  1. First off, gorgeous plate. Absolutely love the spiral mold, the crust on the scallops is *thick*, great job.

    But I gotta say, very bold moves with the flavors. Lavender+carrot+chili marmalade+vanilla.. thems could be fightin’ words, or James Beard awards.

  2. If I was served this dish, I’d be mad that I’m not smart enough to pair flavors this well. It definitely toes a line, but I think it’s smart as fuck and looks gorgeous to boot.

    Marry me

    But seriously, gorgeous. I love your flavor profiles as well, always seems a well thought out balance!

  4. Jesus Christ of course you have your own supper club your skills are insane! I just skimmed through your profile and saw the Star Wars themed menu that was done so tastefully. As a huge SW fan myself I would expect a Star Wars themed menu to be so tacky but you made it so refined while still reminding me of the films. Sorry to go off topic from the beautiful dish you presented here.

  5. That looks fucking awesome. But I’m confused, a panna cotta? So it’s cold? Why not use agar instead of gelatine so it could be warm/hot?

  6. Oh my god that’s gorgeous. Kind of weird to see a scallop pre cut that isn’t sashimi haha!

    Ha. People bitching. Whatever. Looks super pro but I have to say…commercial fishing crabbing and tracking down the scallop boat in Alaska I’m a spoiled chef and buy scallops in 20 lb bags fresh as you can get just for myself! The two slices of scallop I appreciate for sure butt….guess I’m just bitching too. Hahaha. Not really. If I pay for someone to whip something up that I wouldn’t take the time and inventiveness to construct , it’s very beautiful and different than what I normally see. Helps me with my catering game. Thanks.
