"I love cauliflower! This is a perfect blend of earthy cauliflower with just the right amount of too much acid, mint and salty capers. A very inspiring dish that I keep thinking about"

"Order anything with blue crab. Kevin is the only chef I'm aware of that steams and then hand picks the meat from blue crabs. It's a big commitment and they make delicious work of it."
