Hi

We have a kitchen store over in Mt. Vernon that offer classes quarterly

from many different chefs in the area. So you get to pick and choose

who you would like to take from. This recipe is from a Chef we have

always liked.

He does recipes from many different countries.

Its always interesting to see the different Chefs and how they teach.

and the tidbits they tell you.
