Review: Chef Jonathan Scinto hosts pleasant ‘Bloody Bites’ food tasting (Includes first-hand account)

He is known from such television programs as MasterChef, Food Network, Chopped and the World Food Championships, among others.

The first course at the “Bloody Bites” was ceviche style Bloody Mary shrimp shooters. This event was for patrons age 21 years and older.

The third tasting was by far everybody’s favorite. It featured Chicken strips with rum maple syrup, coupled with waffle crisps, and Chef Jonathan’s savory Bloody Mary cheese sauce.

The fourth and final course was dessert. Chef Jonathan prepared a Bloody Mary cheesecake that was light and tasty, coupled with graham crackers that were sprinkled on it like gold-dust. Well done.

Particularly impressive about this chef is that he refrains from using butter and margarine in his dishes (which is something most chefs and cook overuse in their cooking). Instead, he uses olive oil.

The Verdict

Overall, Chef Jonathan proved that he is a master of “Bloody Mary” delights. His culinary creativity and the presentation of his dishes was noteworthy at The Peninsula Cafe. His food tasting events are highly recommended for all. He introduces his dishes to the patrons, shares his insights and culinary knowledge, and he makes everybody feel at home. Chef Jonathan’s passion for his craft and his brand is evident. His food tasting event garnered two thumbs up. Bravo.
