A perfect meal:
This picture is from September 2010 at the great restaurant Elkano in Getaria, Spain. A few chefs were in San Sebastian for the Gastronomika conference. This was the last night before we all left and there was an organized dinner at elkano, a restaurant I had heard a lot about as ‘the grilled whole turbot place’. Smart phones and food social media were still in its infancy…so all I knew about elkano was word of mouth and that it was the one of the two epic restaurants you had to eat at outside San Sebastián( the other is etxebarri).
To be honest I was so full of eating amazing things all week I really just wanted to go to bed early…we were all so stuffed from overeating all week downing everything with goblets of gin & tonics. I was so happy to be wrong…hoped on a van and we drove about an hour outside of Sebastian to the coastal town Getaria.
I was also in filming what became mind of chef and tony was there as a speaker and helping produce the show that week. It was the one night we weren’t filming too. So regretfully I never had any footage. I’ve always wanted at least a photo of this meal…because it was big night like special…it was pure magic…the soup, chuleta, the kokotxas and of course the turbot, blue cheese course…. I was dining with my old boss Daniel Boulud, chef owner of elkano Pedro Arregui, the great Wylie Dufrense and the late Tony Bourdain. The room was packed with friends and my chef heroes. It was perfect, laughter and epic dinner conversations. Everyone eating turbot like they were bbq ribs…faces and fingers coated in sherry vin, turbot fat and olive oil. (Wylie holding up the turbot)
So I was beyond giddy when I saw that journalist @aleforbes recently posted this photo. Finally have a pic of this night. 🙏
This dinner is the reason when people ask me where would my last meal at a restaurant be…hands down a meal at elkano with some great friends. 🙏 dc Restaurante Elkano

Kids dinner: Roasted salmon with roe on rice. Only one son loved it. The other son is in a serious committed relationship with boxed Mac & cheese. I have to break them up somehow.
🧑🍳 If you see “house made” on a menu does it actually mean it’s good?

A great restaurant, one of my favorite spots…cold beer goblets and po’boys ❤️
@anooppillarisetti brought me here a few years ago…so good Domilise’s Poboy Shop
Cooking beer can chicken…(second time)
First time I tried to make it I crashed and burned it wasn’t pretty. Second time is looking a little better…still crashed but tasted great.
The tiny chicken seasoned with @momofukugoods spicy salt and @athleticbrewing (cerveza athletica makes a great pan sauce)
Lil’ dizzy’s makes some of the best food in New Orleans. So good. Gumbo, oyster dressing on pork chops, fried chicken…everything is so good. Some of the most delicious white beans on rice I’ve ever had. @nflonprime @lildizzyscafe504 ❤️ Lil Dizzy’s Cafe
Sweet & spicy noodles out now…I like to serve this noodle cold with a fried egg, pickled vegetables and momofuku chili crunch.
Also launching the @majordomomedia YouTube channel 🙏 check it out!
When I have a layover in Cancun…I stay at this airport hotel specifically to eat this sandwich: “The John Borda”…it’s like a Philly cheesesteak crossed with a little but of a torta. Delicious. Courtyard by Marriott Cancun

our coolest recipe yet — we have a new recipe series with @davidchang where he created dishes inspired by our new noodle flavors. dave shared that one of his favorite ways to eat our new sweet & spicy noodles is actually when they’re served cold. so he cooked up a meal reminiscent of bibim naengmyeon or bibim guksu.

a mukbang worthy meal — in part two of our new recipe series where @davidchang created dishes inspired by our new noodle flavors, dave shared that the spices found in our spicy chili noodles remind him of southeast asian flavors. so he cooked up a meal loosely inspired by singaporean chili crab. head to the link in our bio to watch dave bring the heat to the kitchen and easily elevate our noodles into this “chili crab” noodle dish.
