“The combination of traditional cooking methods with a modern approach really makes this dish a winner. I feel as if I am giving a nod to the past but also saying, ‘Here’s my version.’”Hyewon Kwon, Executive Pastry Chef, Broken Sound Club
Hyewon Kwon, Executive Pastry Chef of Broken Sound Club in Boca Raton, Fla., says the flavors of her Honeycrisp tartine, which she pairs with her housemade cinnamon ice cream, work well in part because they’re familiar.
“It’s about taking a classic taste and adding a modern twist,” she says. “This dish shows how we can respect classic culinary traditions while still adding our own modern touches.”
The overwhelmingly positive response she’s received from members is what makes Kwon most proud, she says, and it affirms the hard work she puts in each day to make every element of this dish stand out.
“I feel as if I am giving a nod to the past,” Kwon says, “but also saying, ‘Here’s my version.'”
