What is your signature dish?

I have many but I really love my prime rib. I make it with fresh herbs that I grow in my garden. I also make my own horseradish sauce. I also like to make creamy pasta dishes with unique proteins such as boar, emu and ostrich. They are harder to come by .

Who is your culinary inspiration?

My Italian father but the older I got, the more I cooked outside the box.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Put it towards retirement!
