[MUSIC] In terms of new ingredients I've discovered and really
mad about, there's something called a long bone rib eye.
And it's a ribeye steak with a super long bone
and it just looks terrific. Butter, I never heard of
it before and now I'm using a lot of it.
The most exciting thing to me right now is artisanal
pork. There's amazing strides being made in great raise management
in terms of the actual animal itself but also the
way it's treated and the way that it's fed. And
it gives us so much more flavor to play with
and deal with it, it's the spectacular thing. We certainly
have a relationship with the farm in Youngsville. Which is
called Jacobson Farm. And he's the only farm in America
that is, has certified organic snails. So that's something we
have a good time. [MUSIC]
