It's is difficult for me to say that I have a signature dish. Some family and friends would say my fried mushrooms and if I were to pick I would say, maybe my tacos. But I love to experiment and challenge myself
Who is your culinary inspiration?I am really influenced by "the Nard Dog cooks," and Derek Sarni
What would you do with the $25,000?Life has been a struggle for me due to dealing with a rare condition that I have called acromegaly. I wiuld use the miney to get caught up on some debt and I would also buy my daughter somethings that she needs as well.
