What is your signature dish?

The soul of a kitchen is found in its bread! I love to make fresh bread for all my parties! If it’s Friday our fish fry it what makes you feel like home even on the Gulf Coast!

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My first Chef Doug Lavalle was a rock star in my eyes commanding the pass and sauté station we would listen to the Dead & and he tell me stories of cooking in Providence and at J-Wu. He took $14 bucks from my first check and bought Bourdain's kitchen confidential told me I had 1 week to finish it, “next pay day kid tell me if this is what you want and I’ll train you” I’ve never finished a book in my life, I finished that one and have been hooked on kitchens s

What would you do with the $25,000?

I’m a single Dad of 2 teen boys and pray for me, they’re about to start driving! Ha it’s time to give the Jeep a tune up and pass her down, but the good news is I would have to get a new one 😊
