I went to Brooklyn for dinner with Antoine and three other people from the group that went to Big Bend National Park. This is Antoine at work at the stove. He was born and raised in Paris, France, and he knows how to cook as you might expect!
He cooked these two chickens in this cast iron pot, and basted them every half hour. When the chickens were done, he poured off the liquid, and reduced it in a pot on the stove. When we came into the kitchen, the aroma of the liquid being reduced was heavenly! Also on the menu was a dish made from yams, and another dish made from eggplant and tahini. A superb dinner, and worth the ride to Brooklyn.
This is the cast of characters, from left: Stan, Antoine, Preston, and Chirag. What an evening!
