What is your signature dish?

Known for my dim sum or pork + shrimp dumplings with my homemade chili oil.

Who is your culinary inspiration?

Both of my grandparents. My italian grandmother made everything from scratch- from wine to cheese. My german grandmother made the best german potato salad + pies.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Build an outdoor kitchen for me to entertain with year round. I live on Cape Cod, so my house is a frequent stop for family and friends and having the ability to have an outdoor kitchen would be amazing.
