Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Matsugen Restaurant Masters the Art of Soba

A Jean-Georges Vongerichten restaurant,Matsugen is where the esteemed chef channels his love and appreciation for Asian flavors and aesthetics into a Japanese soba shop. Soba are buckwheat noodles that are served cold or hot, with a variety of toppings. They are especially difficult to master, because the noodles must be 100% buckwheat, which means that the noodle has no gluten to hold it together - thus, the noodles must be hand formed and cooked VERY carefully so they don't fall apart. It is an art form that is not often seen in America, and one that I was anxious to try. I had never tried TRUE soba before-only ones with regular white flour worked in-so I hoped I was in for a treat in the modern, elegant, simply designed dining room.

For the Love of Lamb

I love lamb. As a person who generally is not fond of meat, I am surprised by my own admiration for the smell and taste of well cooked lamb. And yet, many self proclaiming voracious carnivores turn and run from the mere smell of lamb claiming it just doesn’t cut it for their suddenly selective palate.

I had the honor of being invited to a gem tucked away in the Wynwood Arts District at Nina Torres Fine Art in Miami. It was the vernissage preview of Maestro Roberto Altmann’s latest works and highlighting a selection of pieces being sent to the museum of Seoul, Korea. Roberto Altmann’s work speaks for itself, where in each piece you can notice he uses his 30 years of experience and styles to bring out the human form from the background. It is a unique style that forces you to challenge what you see before you and appreciate the work that went into creating it.
