Red Hen dinner @ OXO

Richard's Ridiculously good radishes with whipped butter Maldon salt and cucumber shallot salad

Some more of Richard's produce Shaved raw asparagus with warm bacon vin and crispy parm
Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the next two dishes. First seared scallop with fennel apple slaw and roasted beets. Then braised local chicken breast with foie gras dirty rice local morels and maple jus.
For some reason I assumed one of our local stores would have local strawberries after I had seen them at the market but unfortunately they didn't. But I still like this dish on the left is a strawberry tarragon salad with whipped balsamic. Next sliced strawberries with black pepper syrup. Finally warm strawberry noodles with vanilla thyme sauce.
Thanx to the guys at OXO, Patrick, Noah and of course John for letting me use the kitchen and some of his ingredients.
