SeaFood & Spice And Everything Nice! Written by Richard Stewart

"Alyee!" That is the name of the "hottest" hot sauce coming out of South Georgia, and Jessica Repress is the woman behind it. For Jessica, it all started with her mother, a
South Korean expatriate who started her own business, David's Crab House, with her husband, Jessica's father, back in Savannah in 1992. Watching customers use the hot sauce on a variety of meals cooked in the family restaurant gave Jessica the idea to push the product further than her neck of the woods. "Our customers would come in and put it on our chicken and even our collard greens. That's the only hot sauce I put on my collard greens because of the seasoning in it. I don't need anything else," says Jessica. "It's made for seafood, and it's not just a hot sauce. It has flavor to it. It's more than just spicy. It has flavor to it. It's thicker, not watery, so you can sauté with it."
