Together we created some great memories and an amazing menu-and all on a NYC rooftop. I was eager to cook with soft-shell crabs, so we fried them up and served them with a gorgeous and easy laksa sauce. We had Andy doing his Thai food thing with braised duck legs in a delicious five-spice broth, and an enticing aroma filled the kitchen Anita was adding some fusion to beef tartare by mixing Lebanese and Chinese cuisines and Matt was in his element using asparagus, walnuts, and his own fermented miso paste that he makes in his famous Atera kitchen. The menu was out of control (but in a good way). But as Mogger64 noted in his original nomination, its significant that A Moveable Feast was 'written at the end of his life'. It was a thrill to be at this amazing location and preparing a rooftop dinner with some of the country’s most talented chefs, including Anita Lo, Matt Lightner, and Andy Ricker. Back in a Manhattan loft, the team steams up the kitchen, whipping up a flavorfully diverse feast of steak tartare, soft-shell crabs, and stewed duck for a crowd of delighted NYC food fans. But before they can get down to cooking, they hunt up summer produce in a fabulous vegetable garden on Ward’s Island, in New York Harbor, and more exotic ingredients in Chinatown’s vibrant shops.
