What a delicious way to spend a Saturday!
Went to Perennial Accents with a few girlfriends to witness the battle between Chef Drew and Chef Ryan. Armed with ingredients such as rice, asparagus, cheese, chicken stock, mango and an odd looking celery root the chefs took off!
The "mystery" protein wound up to be scallops (a personal fave) so we settled in the way cool demo kitchen with our crisp white wine and watched the men work their magic!
After delightful banter and helpful hints from both chefs the dishes were unveiled for voting. Chef Drew chose to make blanched asparagus with a vinaigrette dressing topped with the pan-seared scallop and a dollop of decadent truffle butter. Delicious! Chef Ryan's creation was an asparagus risotto topped with the scallop and a fresh mango salsa. The bright, fresh cilantro really made the dish pop. Bravo to both!
Alas, someone must win and Chef Ryan emerged triumphant. But as I said to both that day, "Don't get big heads chefs, but you just made 16 women moan simultaneously!"
