I'm always inspired to fire up the grill when spring finally arrives, and grilling is a great way to enhance the taste and texture of vegetables. This grilled zucchini recipe is quick, easy and delicious!

Spring brings holiday and seasonal treats to the table so it got me thinking about wines to pair with some traditional food favorites.

I love serving fresh seafood dishes this time of the year. Everyone will want to know your secret to making these perfect crab cakes!

We are pleased to announce that our very own Mitchell's Ocean Club was named one of the nation's "Top 100 Restaurants for Best" Service in the 2012 OpenTable Diners' Choice Awards.

We tend to associate Champagne with holidays and celebrations. I always say there is no reason why you can’t enjoy a glass (or two) any day of the week. Champagne is an incredibly versatile wine with healthful benefits, so why not treat it as more of an everyday libation?

February is American Heart Month, so this is a great time for me to talk about the heart-healthy benefits of eating seafood. Many of us already know that fish is a great source of protein and it’s low in saturated fat, but did you also know fish is an excellent source of Omega-3 fatty acids? I just finished reading an article published by the American Heart Association, which says that Omega-3 fatty acids are not only very beneficial for your heart if you’re at risk or suffering from heart disease, but also for if you’re already in great shape! Because of the health advantages of Omega-3 fatty acids, such as a decreased risk of arrhythmias and lower blood pressure, they recommend eating at least two servings of fish per week.

 Winter is the time of year for warm and flavorful meals, and it’s important to choose the appropriate wine to compliment the richness of comfort food. There is no definitive rule about which wines you should drink in the wintertime, but I enjoy a hearty, full-bodied red during the colder months.

When it’s cold and gray outside, almost nothing is more comforting than a warm, hearty homemade meal. Braising is one of my favorite cooking methods, and this savory ragu is the perfect cure for the winter blues. I like to start this recipe right after breakfast, so the whole house smells incredible for hours!
