As chef at New Yorks posh Lafayette restaurant, he pioneered a style of cooking that sparked a culinary revolution in this country: He replaced heavy sauces and stocks with vegetable juices, infused oils, and vinaigrettes. Under his command, the Lafayette received four stars from the New York Times. Today Vongerichten is chef and co-owner of three of New Yorks most sophisticated "in" restaurants. Known for his versatility and artistry, Vongerichten is a wizard at combining flavors Chefs note: "This is a wonderful dish for a summer party. Let the guests help themselves from large serving bowls of shrimp and spiced rice. Or or a fancier sit-down affair, serve individual timbales of rice surrounded by shrimp and broth in decorative flat soup plates." Email this Recipe:
