Seared Scallops and Shredded Brussel Sprouts


I live around the corner from Central Market. And I love Central Market. Me going there is like a kid in the candy store. I could walk around in there for hours, and I could easily come out broke every time. So, I have decided to allow myself only one shopping trip there a month. And this is one of my Central Market meals.

  2. Those look incredible.

    I don't understand how you're able to refrain from boasting over how good it surely must have tasted! What a beautiful dish.
