This is how I cook...

“I love to elevate and redefine the most simplest of dishes to bring big bold flavors to your palate!.”

- Chef Aaron McCargo Jr.

Assorted calzone slices on a wooden board with fresh tomatoes, parsley, garlic, and a cup of marinara sauce.
Cucumber slices topped with creamy chicken salad garnished with herbs, served with lettuce, blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries on a plate.

Simply Done. Well Done.

I take the flavors to such heights that the final dish is totally exciting, yet without becoming a caricature of itself.
