DList Magazine “Chef of the Future”

Bob Kramer- Master Blade Smith (3 of 3)

Next up was my pickled dish. Pickled golden beets, pickled sea […]

We walked in and we were the first ones there at 11AM and I immediately fell in love with the set up of the restaurant. IT’S OPEN!! I […]

Buy her book here (click) I was asked to serve a geoduck ceviche which […]
