Old Friends reunite!

To my surprise the visiting chefs this past weekend...I knew! Chef George Shannon was a former boss of mine a few years ago in Virginia. His Wife Stephanie and himself both work at The Williamsburg Lodge in Williamsburg, VA.

They stayed for 3 days, taking a break from work and just relaxing. Touring the farm, eating out, having Jonny and I cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner during their stay. When you come to The Culinary Vegetable Institute, it really is a lovely time. While they stayed they did however have to cook! On their last day we gave them a Mystery Box Challenge. A large box filled with "Willy Wonka" Vegetables. They have 30 mins to cook and come up with as many dishes as they can. Jonny and I stepped in and assisted them. We had a great time, taking direction from a former boss.

They prepared:

Roasted Vegetables,with a cucamelon,corn, and tomato salsa, over a bed of Petite Lettuces Seared Scallop, Cauliflower, Broccoli, Micro Spinach, and Roasted Pepper Sauce Roasted Lamb, Root vegetables and Mixed beans, Long Lina Green Beans, and Jus
