He's a fabulous chef that I had the honor of meeting over the weekend. And in a world where 'sustainability' has become an increasingly-used buzzword, it's good to see someone like Chef Michel actually keep a restaurant up to the full standards of what sustainabilty can do for the community. Kudos!
Yes MS...Westport is one community who definitely has the market cornered on sustainability with Dressing Room and LeFarm. Kudos to Chef Michael and Chef Taibe for being pioneers in this all-important culinary movement. Hopefully more communities like Norwalk and especially Stamford can get some restaurants to follow suit.
I respect Nischan and his work as founder of the Wholesome Wave Foundation (bringing fresh food to inner cities) and the Dressing Room is obviously more sustainable than most restaurants....
my only complaint though is that they have Louisiana gulf shrimp on their menu...not quite local or sustainable. why go thru all this trouble and serve this dish??
