220 pan seared T Bone steaks!



A wonderful local company donated 220 T Bone steaks!  And we served 220 diners!  More than a coincidence!  My Boss was away on his Honneymoon, so I knew I had to cook the steaks before he returned. He would want to "save" the steaks. 

The guys pan seared the steaks to perfection and topped them with onion confit.  Served with rosemary potatoes and fresh string beans. 

Steve, the Shift Leader, proudly displays our work!

As I predicted, the Boss came back from his Homeymoon and chewed me out for waisting the steaks. He wanted to serve them to VIP's .  That means the Board of Director's meetings and staff.  I said that I did serve the steaks to the VIPs, the men and women that we serve.

We are very greatful and excited that a generous doner has supplied us with an assortment of quality steaks and chicken breast.   We are using these gifts to sharpen our techniques and serve great food.

Food is Art!

Food is Art and the Chef is an Artist!

House Made Bread

Pictured is Jesus, my very hard working and innovative Intern.  When he could not get the right bread for his sandwiches, he baked his own.  Enough for 180 Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches.   

House made Bread. House made Mayonesse and Mustard.  House made Pasta Sauces. The kitchen is doing a great job in turning our donations into Fine Dining Ingredientd.
