Smoky.

Filed Under  

My boss, Ce (who is a superb chef), traditionally makes a dinner for artists and staff at work towards the end of each residency. It’s always a grand to-do with amazing food and she spends a full day dancing to Motown classics and carefully crafting each dish. This year scheduling a dinner when everyone was available was impossible, so she decided to put together a Sunday brunch.

On the menu:
Baby asparagus with lemon caper sauce with deviled eggs dusted with red caviar, Shrimp and Grits with fried okra (not for those of us with allergies - she made me a special omelet with bacon, basil, goat cheese and heirloom tomatoes with sweet white onion sauteed in cognac) and cinnamon vanilla waffles with fresh fruit and fresh whipped cream

Yum-o.

There was one small problem with the smoke that okra makes when you fry it:
