I know that i have not posted in like a year but, i just do not have the opportunity to create like i did at my last job. I made this for my chef at L2o and the owner of the restaurant. I am happy with the dish overall but there would be small tweaks if i were to make it again. I  hope soon I will be able to create more dishes or maybe some amuses. Here is the list of components.

Grapefruit and cardamom sorbet

Under the sorbet are balls of the the mayo cake batter  nitro blanched

Olive oil mayonnaise cake (isi siphon in the microwave) rolled in evoo powder

Grapefruit marshmallow (made very soft and is the rectangle going into the bowl)

Whipped Grapefruit curd (the white colored piping made in the paco jet)

Passionfruit film

Shiso “mojito”  foam, when i made the dish for the owner i go the foam to come out much more green and it was garnished with purple shiso buds instead of leaves

Passionfruit tuiles and fresh grapefruit
