We recently had a food critic in my restaurant. They loved it! That's great.  Did they make a write up in the local paper on you? Yes they did actually. It was featured in our local newspaper. It's one of my proudest achievements as a chef. Wonderful! What did you serve the critics that they thought was so awesome? I had served them a traditional Etouffee. I am not sure if you ever heard of it, but it's a wonderful dish.  I have not heard of it.  I just cook basic meals for my kids.   What's in this Etouffee? Etouffee is a dish that usually consists of shellfish that is served over rice. Usually shrimp or crawfish that is very well seasoned with Creole style cooking methods. Oh my that sounds so tasty.  Is that one of your main specialties at your restaurant? Yes it is actually. I am originally from that area. I learned how to cook from my Grandmother. Who taught you how to cook? My Mom taught me how to cook.  Just the basics but her cooking was always very good.  Ah the basics are what makes cooking great. Without a solid foundation to stand on in the cooking world, nothing else matters. If she taught you the basics, she taught you well! Yes.  I appreciate her very much.  It is because of her that I love to cook now.
