ALEGRIA readers. Enjoy this feature from Chef’s Insight about one of our favorite chefs Diego Velasco from Memphis.

 

Crawfish boil today? Hell yes. Just hope the weather clears. Pack the gear and point the car. 55 to the 5, first right on Broadway, end up at 201. Memphis. Love this building, The Santora.

Memphis has a cool interior with diagonal wood floors and simple tables and chairs that give it an art deco meets schoolhouse vibe. We head to the kitchen to go crawfish hunting. You ever race ‘em? Snapper Head and One Claw (the underdog) play in the kitchen before we pack the bunch into the car for their final destination…
