My brother is all but done with culinary school, and I am lucky enough to be the one that can take photos of some of his creations.

To start: seared scallop, sauteed apple, brown butter, and spicy micro greens

Working on my lighting as my brother tends to experiment at night and I have no chance of natural lighting.

C&C welcome.

Again thanks for the kind words.

A lot of credit has to go to my brother for his cooking talent and plating.
