This past Sunday Chef Scott Serpas and I roasted a local Berkshire Pig and Barbecued Bass for guests of Jim & Bobby Carey and John & Flo Gilson at Thomas and Vanessa Arvid’s beautiful cabin.  The event was an auction item at this year’s “Flavors of Atlanta” event of the American Liver Foundation.  It was huge fun!!!

Der Weiner Schnitzel

I made my first weiner schnitzel in 1983 at Rudy’s 2900 in Finksburg Md. while I was on my apprenticeship. This one is on the menu here tonight at 4th&Swift.  It hasn’t changed in 26 years.
