Coquille St Jacques
Coquille St Jacques is the easiest French dish you can imagine. Make it the focal point of dinner and your guests will gush with complements.
Potatoes Confit

Pork Belly Rigatoni
Pork belly rigatoni is my homage to the all’amatriciana inspired by ristorante Armando Al Pantheon in Rome.

Gnocchi In Ricotta Cream Sauce With Truffles
Tender Gnocchi in Ricotta Cream Sauce is creamy, cheesy Italian goodness. A few shaven slices of black winter truffle make it next level.
Goat Cheese Dumplings
Goat Cheese Dumplings have Russian roots. Tvorog cheese is only available in Baltic states, so we used an Arkansas filling!
