Smoked ribeye with garlicky Alfredo Fettuccine

Who is your culinary inspiration?

Carla Hall is the first woman I saw that resembled the women in my family, she made me realize, I got this! Anthony Bourdain because I learned so much about food culture from him, he made me believe I could include two types of food on one menu.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would begin my life long culinary dream of feeding people the type of food that makes them remember that special memory in their life.
