Receive Text UpdatesI love to work with Asian flavors and when I asked my grown up kids what they think is my signature dish. They both said my Pork Egg Rolls with sweet n sour dipping sauce.
Who is your culinary inspiration?I like watching the Food Network and have several favorites but I think my culinary inspiration when I was younger, was Martin Yang. He used to have a cooking show on TV years ago. I would say current day inspiration would be Brooke Williamson, Jet Tila, of course Alex Guarnaschelli.
What would you do with the $25,000?Use it to hopefully help us to get settled on the Oregon coast and set up a culinary business.
