Chef Anthony Wall Owner/Proprietor
"This is me. I go to the market and pick my own fresh vegetables and seafood...and am very particular about what I buy and how I prepare the food. Today the nouveau way to serve food is to stack it...but have you ever watched anyone try and eat something served like that? That's not enjoyable to me. Good food is about flavor, texture and ingredients. Of Course we want the food to look good when it's served, but we really want dinner to be a pleasurable experience". Quote from Chef Wall in The Times...at the jersey Shore 11/18/99
