The meal we wanted all weekend..
We rolled out of the east end early due to forgotten homework in the city. It is always a sweet thing when there is no traffic. I made it back, including 2 pits stops, in a little over 2 1/2 hours. Love that.
Unpacked and went grocery shopping to fill up for the week ahead. I got the chance to make the dinner we had all been craving all weekend.
Grilled yellow peppers, radicchio, asparagus, zucchini and a thinly sliced burrato on the side. All tossed with some olive oil and sea salt before hitting up the grill. The main course, grilled Sea Bream. I stuffed each fish with sliced lemons, chopped shallots and a handful of basil. Wrapped each with a little bit of twine and stuffed a sliced lemon underneath after dousing the fish with basil oil, olive oil and salt.
I kept thinking about the shitty food in the Hamptons this weekend and am looking forward to some serious cooking this summer.

Looks yummy! Nothing like a home cooked meal indeed…
Boy do I know that feeling. Often nothing tastes better than a meal you make at home. What kind of burrata did you get? There aren’t many domestic burrata producers. So far my favorite is from Gioia, a small little Italian cheese maker out of LA.
Not sure. Comes in a white bag at Citarella shipped in from Italy. Its fantasticjoanne [email protected]
OMG. This looks delicious. Kass and I made the decision today to get a grill for our deck despite the city ordinance. This meal looks amazing. You should charge $200 a head for dinner by Gotham and donate the money to charity! You’ll have a full house for sure. Go Gotham Go!
Maybe I should just have you and Kass over for dinner
Just pick the date! I’ll make my famous flank steak (marinated for 2 days for maximum taste and softness!). Love your food posts. Keep ’em coming. Gotham is now my #1 Wilson site! AVC is now #2 on my list of Wilson blogs.
damn, that’s just not right Mike!
Hey Joan. Where do you buy your fish?
Citarella or the Lobster Place on Bleeker. They also have a place inChelsea market.
NOM.
Ha! Lazerow and I read this at wrong time: while hungry! Sorry Fred.Looks and sounds wonderful.My grandmother made a similar meal, and always had homemade plain yogurt with lemon squeezed into it. These reminder her of a fish from the Ararat Valley 🙂 They reminded me grilled whole fish-YUM! 😉
