I have had multiple opportunities to pursue a professional culinary career, however i found no joy in cooking for people you don't know or love. For me my greatest joy is perfecting a dish for my wife. I could bring my wife flowers ten times and not get the same reaction of love that I get from her when I make one of my signature dishes. Seafood. It's so important for me to provide my wife with healthy alternatives, and I know with seafood dishes I can introduce her to what essentially forms into a new healthier way of eating. I have abandonment issues. Cioppino and Vindaloo. These are the two dishes I'm proudest of. You mean that blackened fish is seasoned not just burnt.
