Amazing Appetizers, Chef Domenico Iavarone, Jose' Restaurant (Na)

I'm always curious about the inspiration behind a dish.  Like this appetizer by Michelin starred Chef Domenico Iavarone that I had the chance to try last Valentine's Day.  Chef Iavarone, about to open up a new restaurant, Jose' Restaurant, was in Naples last week.  Instead of a box of chocolates, Iavarone shared his love for the Sorrento Peninsula to over 100 appreciative dinner guests.

Love featuring flavors of the sea starring fresh shrimp stuffed with savoury fior di latte cheese from Agerola.

The chef added other touches from the coast such as lovely lemons from Sorrento presented in gel droplets.

Fresh apple and caviar completed the dish.

So Iavarone shared a little love last Valentines Day.  

Amazing.
