FAMILIARFaces
A Homegrown World Champion Nikki Jenkins and her team bring home the global gold by Danica Low
I
f you are raised in the Jenkins’ family, you’re going to have a rock solid work ethic, a strong sense of character and a whole lot of drive. For 29 years, Fauquier residents Ron and Carolyn Jenkins have dedicated their lives to their two children, Nikki and Kirk, to their martial arts business, and to many in their community who have needed a place to belong. They are centered on their faith, family, and commitment to serve. Together, as a foursome, the Jenkins family has grown their business – KSA (Karate Sports Academy) – into a very successful martial arts studio that is competing in global competitions and bringing home the gold. Nikki Jenkins is the oldest child in the Jenkins family. She is a 4th degree Master Black Belt in martial arts. Nikki and her brother, Kirk, are as committed to martial arts as their parents. Photos of her and Kirk as preschool aged children in white Karate uniforms, striking poses with high kicks, adorn the KSA studio walls. Ron and Carolyn, Nikki’s parents, are professionally titled as Grandmaster and Master Jenkins respectively and are both

multi-level black belts who have won national titles. Kirk recently toured with Marvel Universe Live as Wolverine, appeared in Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood music video and leveraging his martial arts talents even further, has recently relocated to California for stunt work in films and other professional media jobs. This summer, Nikki and seven others from KSA competed with Team America in the World Organization of Martial Arts
“Always train your hardest. Always train like you finished last. You can always be stronger, better. Never give up on your dreams. Even if you hit a few bumps in the road.” – Nikki Jenkins Athletes (WOMAA) world championship in Cardiff, Wales. After several days of competition across martial arts styles such as Korean, Japanese and traditional bladed weapon, Nikki won gold in all the categories she entered – Women’s Korean Forms, Women’s Blades Weapons, and Overall Women’s Forms Grand Champion – and was inducted into the WOMAA Hall of Fame. All other Team America members from KSA collectively brought home 24 medals. “Overall, this was a very good experience,” Nikki says. “I’m very thrilled to have so many of our students rank. Everyone on the KSA team medaled, and to me, this shows the strength of our studio. As an instructor, this makes you extremely proud. You know how hard your students have trained. It is very rewarding.” Nikki and Kirk have followed in their parents’ footsteps, most notably in 2012 (London) and 2013 (Dublin) when they competed together in WOMAA competitions; 2013 resulted in the bringing home of major titles – Best Male Overall and Best Female Overall. Next year the competition will be in Portugal. Nikki began to prepare for the world games early. She was mentally and physically prepared to defend her title of Overall Best Female World Champion in the 2015 games, she says, and notes this is a title she has held for three years. To qualify, Nikki says competitors have to be scouted or attend a regional qualifiers competition and place in the top four to be considered for the U.S. team. Invitations are received a full year in advance (in the fall) for the upcoming summer games. The Jenkins family takes pride in the fact that WOMAA is focused on good sportsmanship. Nikki adds that everybody has something different to offer, and with 300 different divisions to enter, many styles are available to compete with. The divisions are broken down by age and rank with medals awarded in each division. Nikki explains that, much like dance, martial arts Broad Run Lifestyle
encompasses many different styles including: Korean; Japanese; Chinese; Kenpo; weapons; point sparring; continuous sparring; fighting/ knockout; ground fighting/Jujitsu; self-defense and in the team competition – team form and team sparring – to name a few. Nikki competes in traditional form. Styles in this form are taught at KSA and are recognized worldwide. Nikki says she likes to choose forms that makes you think on your feet with little preparation beforehand. However, the other forms she uses were practiced over and over again. When she gets to a competition, Nikki then makes a final decision on which one of the three to compete with – based on how her body is feeling, how well she is hitting the moves, and what the competition looks like. On July 31, 2015, at her third WOMAA games, Nikki claimed two gold medals, a bronze, a grand championship ring, and was inducted into the WOMAA Hall of Fame as International Female Competitor of the Year – which is voted on by WOMAA global directors (every country has a voting organization president). She was also honored with a championship ring, which shows she was the Top Female Competitor Overall. This small town girl grew up to be a global champion through a lot of years of hard work. Nikki says WOMAA training is “pretty intense.” She trained specifically for these games for a full year and this was in addition to the hours she spends every week giving instruction at the KSA studio. During the summer months (she is a teacher at KRHS) she trained from 9 am-2 pm, five days a week, through running, fitness classes, kicking drills, and exercises to build leg endurance. Fauquier is home for Master Nikki Jenkins. When she is not practicing, teaching or competing in martial arts, Nikki is teaching science classes at Kettle Run High School, where she has been employed for the last for five years. A graduate of James Madison University, where she ran college track for a year, Nikki has coached Kettle Run’s Varsity and Junior Varsity Boys and Girls high school track teams for eight years. This fall, she will not be coaching track and will focus on teaching classes at the KSA studio in Warrenton, where her family just consolidated its growing business into one location. She helps run KSA day to day and may be found teaching self-defense, karate, sparring, Zumba, or really any and all forms of cardio and martial arts training that the studio offers. Nikki enjoys jewelry making, music and dancing, and has a continued interest in geology. At 29 years old, she has achieved quite much and proverbially has the best years ahead of her.
Q&A with a World Champion: What kind of training went into winning this for you? Cardio workouts, martial arts, stretching, much repetition and critiquing, and repeating this process many times over! What kind of self-care was key? Any specific regimens you had to follow or health/training tips for fellow athletes? I definitely made adjustments to nutrition. It is important for athletes to understand what goes into their bodies and how it affects them. Also, many do not realize how important hydration and rest are. They are keys to recovery. How many years have you been doing martial arts? 28 What’s your favorite form? I do not have one favorite but do have three that I tend to do more often. Who are your trainers? My parents, Ron and Carolyn Jenkins. What’s your best competition memory? Being on stage in front of all of the countries and winning the World Championship and getting inducted into the 2015 Hall of Fame. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Still competing. Now that you’ve won the world championship, what are your athletic goals/goals with martial arts? I plan to continue my competing and training. I was just named the Mid-Atlantic Director for the World Organization of Martial Arts Athletes. So, I will have a larger role in the International Community in the coming years. What did your brother have to say to you after the win? He was very proud of me. He was missed by so many at the world competition, because he was filming and wasn’t able to be there. We won this together in 2013 – female and male champions – and that was a lot of fun. We’ve always been side by side. I am so proud of him too! What would you say to young athletes? Always train your hardest. Always train like you finished last. You can always be stronger, better. Never give up on your dreams. Even if you hit a few bumps in the road. Have you ever stepped away from martial arts? When I graduated high school, I went to JMU for a year on a track scholarship. I couldn’t participate in Karate competitively because of my track contract. I missed it so much! When I came back to it, I made the USA Taekwondo team, and had to release myself from the track scholarship.
Nikki and Kirk have grown up in the disciplined world of Karate and that has led them into successful careers that require discipline and focus. (photo supplied by Karate Sports Academy)

New Dining Experiences Around Town and Beyond FOOD TRUCKS OFFER BIG FLAVOR OPTIONS by Debbie Eisele
City lovers know when they want to experience variety, they can venture to food truck locations that offer a myriad of flavors. Hit television shows depicting food truck competitions and festivals seem to capture the attention of “foodies” all around. Small town charm, great service, farm fresh foods and delicious meals are now available in and around Warrenton in the form of mobile restaurants. There are now two food truck options for Warrentonians to experience a unique dining experience that truly supports both a local and “farm to table” (in this case truck) concept. Both food trucks launched this spring: The Rambler and SoBo.
The Rambler The Rambler, sporting a black paint finish with white lettering, can be seen driving through Warrenton on various days and is the first full-time operational food truck in Fauquier County. Owners Aaron Lynch, Adam Lynch and Jamie Sneed are partners in this truck that debuted at The 2015 Spring Festival. According to Adam, “Aaron came up with the idea of starting a food truck over five years ago, and we agreed it would be a great thing.” Adam and Aaron Lynch are
The Vegan Wrap is a tasty option.
brothers and best friend Jamie Sneed decided to launch this new venture an ancillary business of Hidden Julles Cafe (located on Main Street). Jamie, Adam and Aaron started discussions of expanding Hidden Julles’ services in December 2014. Aaron Lynch has a strong background in restaurant management. When the trio was asked about how difficult a process it was to start a food truck business Adam commented, “We obtained such a deal on the truck, so starting that part (of the business) was easy.” He added “The start-up process was a lot of work and red tape. We designed the business plan in February and wanted to be up and going by May 1st, and we were only a few weeks off our target and had our official launch on May 15 at the Spring Festival. There is a lot of paperwork that needs to be completed and licenses to obtain.” MacKenzie Earl wor ks the food truck at The Warrenton Town Limits

The Rambler’s Cuban Sandwich is a crowd pleaser. Aaron discussed the challenge of a new type of entity in Town, “We don’t want to overstep our bounds. With no ordinances in place, The Town can say at any time we cannot conduct our food truck business on Main Street or any other location in town. It is a concern for us from a business point of view, not knowing if you can go to a location from day to day. Additionally, we would love to have a ‘pop-up’ event occasionally and invite other food trucks and entertainers to join, but this won’t be possible until an ordinance is in place.” When asked about what The Rambler crew would like the public to know about their food, Aaron said, “We have no nitrates in any of our meats. I visit local farmers to ensure their practices are in line with what our philosophy is - local, organic and
natural. We think the food is better if it is local. The supply and demand is there for this type of food and it is not much more expensive. It’s important for people to know that.” The menu offers diners the following options: Turkey Brie Panini Sandwich, Cuban Sandwich (which Jamie notes is the best selling item), Mango Chicken Salad Wrap, Vegan Wraps, Santa Fe Wrap and Organic Stuffed Burrito (with fresh homemade salsa, guacamole, mayonnaise, and pork or chicken). “We have found our ingredients extremely popular with the customers and we are glad to offer what what we do,” Sneed commented.
The Rambler offers meals at various commercial locations throughout the county and in Manassas. In August, they held their first food truck/band event at Tin Cannon Brewery. “We would love to see a Food Truck Music Festival event occur here in Warrenton,” stated Adam Lynch when asked what future goals were for the business. Sneed said, “This food truck has given us many options to continue to expand services.” Adam also agreed and said, “We would like to be able to add another food truck to service even more locations in the future.” Currently, The Rambler is available for private, public and catering events and is offering food at Jiffy Lube Live through October 4. Their food truck may also be seen in locations such as Old Bust Head Brewery, Tin Cannon Brewery, and Three Fox Vineyards. Take a look their FaceBook page www. facebook.com/TheRambler for weekly listing of locations where they will be serving their food.

When the smiling, outgoing duo was asked how the idea for the truck came about, Rebecca said with a laugh, “It’s all his fault.” Bo laughed in turn and told his story, “In 1988 I was stationed at Vint Hill and was visiting D.C.. I thought we needed a taco truck. I was a soldier then, became a contractor and retired in March. I always had the idea in the back of my head for this truck.” Rebecca jumped into the conversation at this point and laughed, “He had to meet me first!” So, Bo’s retirement ventured into the food truck business with a focus on farm fresh - taken to an entirely new level. He was inspired by food trucks in D.C. as well as Arizona and Oregon. Rebecca was born and raised on a beef farm in Canada. She has a 60 acre farm, Junco Hill Farm, in Warrenton. She raises turkey, chicken and pork and hopes to provide beef in the near future. Ingredients from SoBo’s menu are literally from their own farm, or are locally sourced with organic options. All the turkey, chicken and pigs are free range, organic and farmed sustainably which is important to both Bo and Rebecca. All their menu options offer the freshest ingredients and the foundation for the recipes originated from Bo’s mother, who was from Mexico. Bo’s heritage is an important part of the meals being served from this restaurant on wheels. Rebecca summed up their philosophy about the food, “It is important to reconnect people with their food. We’ve lost touch with where everything (food) comes from.” Bo simply stated, “It’s cool to know the food we are serving. You know from day one where the food is being raised, how it’s being raised and where it comes from.” Their menu features tacos (Baja, SoBo & American styles), burritos, empanadas and the ‘Bust Head’ Nachos Fundidos, named in honor of Old Bust Head beer, which is used to make the cheese sauce. Their journey has not been without challenges. “The obstacles we have come across are not insurmountable,” stated Rebecca. Bo explained, “Both Rebecca and I would love to have SoBo in Town on specific days of the week and go park and sell to the public on 14
Main Street or other commercial or public locations.” Rebecca said, “We welcome the opportunity to work with the Town and other food trucks in order to offer Warrenton residents this new type service.” Their goal is to get an ordinance passed so that food trucks in the area can do business in Warrenton and provide services to office complexes, WARF, Vint Hill and other locations and special events in the future. SoBo has booked several events and provide meals at Old Bust Head Brewery, Brookside, and are in talks with Morias Winery and Barrel Oak Winery. Price explained, “We haven’t unleashed the beast (SoBo truck) yet. We are selective about venues as we want to start slowly. We do this because it is fun and are looking at booking two events per week.” In the future, they may even consider offering a brick and mortar location but at this time are content with offering services through their mobile restaurant at select locations. Check out SoBo’s website www. sobomobile.com, FaceBook page www. facebook.com/sobomobile and Twitter for news on where they will be parked for customers to try them out. Town Ordinances for Food Trucks When Heather Stinson, Economic Development Manager for the Town, was asked about the ordinances on food trucks she said, “Thank you for asking. In layman’s terms, the current obstacle for food trucks is that they were not fully anticipated in the Town’s zoning ordinance. When a business files for a business license, they must also apply for a zoning permit. Since food trucks (as itinerant merchants) are only permitted to operate on a temporary basis (maximum 4 times per year) for festivals, etc. those wanting to operate on a regular basis do not meet the current requirements of the zoning ordinance.” Stinson also stated, “Town staff is aware of the conflict and has received inquiries from several mobile food and beverage vendors. The town is researching policies and ordinances of communities similar to Warrenton. Staff will then identify
The Empanadas are made of pork from the pigs raised on their farm. and draft necessary amendments to the ordinance and Town Code, as well as present related policy decisions. The Planning Commission and Town Council would then review the proposed amendments (or amendment topics), Public Hearings with both groups would be held to receive community input, and finally the Council would vote to approve some or all of the proposed amendments and may direct staff to return with additional information or amendments.” According to Stinson the areas for consideration would be the following: What zoning categories food trucks would be permitted to operate in (in general). For example, allowing food trucks in commercial areas, but not residential areas. What, if any, restrictions would the town place on operators and how would they be enforced. Health and food safety are already regulated by the state. For example, requiring a certain amount of seating or conversely, prohibiting seating. If food trucks would be permitted to operate on private property only. For example, operating from privately owned parking lots, but not public parking lots or streets. If food trucks would be permitted to sell from public streets and/or public parking lots, and if so what guidelines would they follow. For example, in Washington DC, food trucks are allowed to park and operate along the public streets in designated areas (such as Farragut Square) and spots along the streets are determined by a monthly lottery.

History
SIMON KENTON, LARGER THAN LIFE Legendary frontiersman was born in the Bull Run Mountains by John T. Toler For years, a Virginia Historical Marker has stood along U.S. 15 north of Haymarket that acknowledges Simon Kenton’s birthplace, five miles to the west. In the minimal space allowed, the highway marker describes Simon Kenton (1755-1836) as a frontiersman and associate of Daniel Boone and George Rogers Clark. But there is much more to the story; his life is a chronicle of the Revolutionary War, the struggles faced by the young nation in its early years, and the

brutal conflicts in the disputed Northwest Territory. Simon was born in a small cabin in the Bull Run Mountains at the headwaters of Mill Run on April 3, 1755. He was the seventh child of Mark Kenton Sr., an Irish immigrant, and his wife Mary Miller Kenton, who was of Scotch-Irish stock. The Kentons farmed the patch of land in a little valley between Highacre Hill and Roundtop Mountain known as “Devil’s Bed.” The property was owned by Richard Graham, a merchant whose family had acquired large tracts of land in Western Prince William, some of which became part of Fauquier County when it was broken off from Prince William in 1759. Growing up in poverty and relative isolation, Simon took little advantage of the meager opportunities to get an education in his early years, preferring to hunt and explore the forests around his home. He didn’t like farming or helping around the house, and would rather be playing games – or more often fighting with other boys in the neighborhood. Simon’s propensity for getting into fights would result in an incident that would change the course of his life. At age 16, he was smitten by a local girl named Ellen Cummins. However, Ellen wasn’t interested in young Simon, and was later betrothed to William Leachman, who was older and better educated. At the reception following the wedding of William and
Ellen, Simon created a scene by seating himself at the table between William and Ellen. Sensing trouble, William’s brother lured Simon outside with the promise of a drink, and proceeded to give him a severe beating. Simon recovered from his injuries, but never got over the incident. On April 5, 1771, his father sent him over to the

Simon was spared this gruesome fate when Simon Girty – a Tory turncoat who functioned as the liaison between the British and their Indian allies – came upon the scene. Girty, who claimed he had known Simon years before, convinced the Indian chief to allow him to take Simon to the British headquarters at Detroit, where he would be more valuable as a prisonerof-war. The arrangements were made and Girty and an Indian escort set out for Detroit with Simon and two other captives. Stopping for the night by an Indian trader’s house, Girty and the Indians engaged in a drunken spree. The trader’s wife, wishing to help the prisoners,
who opposed British rule. Hamilton had seized the fort a few months earlier, when the French and their Indian cohort fled under attack, leaving two Americans, one of whom was Capt. Leonard Helm, to face the British. They were taken as prisoners of war. On Feb. 23, 1779, Gen. Clark and about 100 men, including Simon, surrounded Fort Sackville. Although outnumbered 4-to-1, they deceived Hamilton into believing that the American force numbered 1,000 men – and just the mention of Clark’s name struck fear into the Indians under Hamilton’s command. After taking a few casualties shot inside the fort by American marksmen,
While being taken to British authorities in Detroit by Simon Girty, Simon was helped to escape by the wife of an Indian trader, who supplied him and his fellow captives with food and arms. secretly spoke to Simon and prepared food, ammunition and clothing for the men, which she hid in a hollow tree at the edge of her garden. After dark, she took three rifles stacked by the house by the Indians, and freed the captives. After blessing and thanking her, the three men hastened away. It would take a month to get back to the American lines. Simon recovered from the ordeal, and was back in the service of the Continental Army, serving as a scout for Gen. George Rogers Clark during the February 1779 expedition to recapture Fort Sackville at Vincennes, Indiana, on the Wabash River. Col. Henry Hamilton, the lieutenant governor of Detroit, commanded Fort Sackville. Hamilton was despised by the American settlers, who called him the “Hair Buyer General,” because he paid his Indian allies to scalp anyone in the region 18

Redemption During the summer of 1779, Simon learned that his father back in Virginia was still alive, as was his old adversary William Leachman, whom he thought he had killed some 28 years before. Now widowed, Leachman bore no ill will toward Simon. Taking back his old surname, Simon Kenton married Martha Dowden about 1782, and continued his service with the Continental Army until the peace treaty was signed with Britain in early 1783. Wishing to re-establish his family ties, Simon returned home later that summer – arriving just as unexpectedly as when he left.

The expedition, led by Gen. “Mad Anthony” Wayne was in response to increased Indian activity in the area, following the disastrous defeat of Gen.

Americans as part of the Treaty of Paris. Also at issue was the presence of British troops to the north, who were allied with the Indians. On Aug. 20, 1794, Gen. Anthony launched an attack on the confederacy, resulting in the Battle of Fallen Timbers near present-day Maumee, Ohio, south of Toledo. It was a decisive victory for the Legion, and the last major battle fought in the Northwest Indian War. Simon married Martha’s cousin, Elizabeth Jarboe about 1797, and in 1802, moved from Kentucky with his family to what became present-day Zanesville, Ohio. The couple eventually had six children. In recognition of his past service, he was commissioned a general in the Ohio Militia. Ten years later, his militia unit was called-up to fight during the War of 1812. One of five brigades under the Map of the United States in the late 1790s shows some of the original states and the command of Gen. Isaac Shelby (17501826), the Ohio Militia participated in the vast, disputed region known as the Northwest Territory. Battle of the Thames, which was fought on Oct. 5, 1813, near present-day Chatham, Ontario, Canada. British troops under Gen. Henry Proctor had been driven north out of Detroit, along with their Shawnee Indian allies under Chief Tecumseh. Outnumbered by the American forces and running out of food and ammunition, Proctor’s troops and Tecumseh’s braves were quickly defeated. Tecumseh was killed in the battle, and the poorly managed British retreat was a complete rout. The action re-affirmed American control of the Northwest Territory, and marked the end of the Indian alliances and British involvement south of Canada. After his last tour of military service, Simon returned to Ohio, where he became a large landowner. But while he was a skilled warrior, he was not well versed in the real estate and property laws of the time, and over the next ten years, he lost most of his property, and his fortune, to swindlers. Left with only a small cabin on a piece of undesirable land, Simon appeared before the Kentucky legislature at Frankfort, asking that a claim on property he still had in that state be released. Looking bedraggled and dressed in tattered clothes, he was not immediately recognized. But when his identity became known, he was treated with respect and the claim dropped. As was the case with other veterans, it would take years, but the U.S. Congress finally gave Simon a pension for his years of service. He died on April 29, 1836, in his cabin near Zanesville, and was buried in the small cemetery on the property. In November 1865, his remains were re-interred in the Oakdale Cemetery in Urbanna, Ohio.

GREENHILL WINERY & VINEYARDS Offering a New Taste At The Old Swedenburg Estate by Steve Oviatt Swedenburg Estate in Middleburg, started in 1987 by Juanita Swedenburg and her husband, gained fame as both the fictional home of author Ellen Crosby’s mysteries and for leading the fight to allow wine to be shipped across state lines. Hard times followed Swedenburg’s death in 2007. Before satellite entrepreneur David Greenhill purchased the struggling winery and vineyards in 2013, he conducted a series of meetings with then Doukenie winemaker Sebastian Marquet, who was looking for new opportunities. Once Greenhill purchased the property, Marquet took over by replacing older, diseased vines with new stock and varietals and giving the wines a new taste. Turning the old Swedenburg home into an adults-only club retreat and remodeling the tasting room has transformed the new Greenhill Winery and Vineyards into a true destination along the Route 50 corridor in Middleburg. The wines reflect Marquet’s Burgundy heritage, beginning with the delightful, bubbly Blanc de Blancs. The dry, fruity Seyval Blanc and bone dry Riesling pair well with sushi, sashimi, poultry and seafood. The highly rated 24

Chardonnay, with its light buttery and vanilla notes, is a refreshing treat with cheeses and chicken. Red wines of note are the surprisingly light Superstition, which pairs well with game and lamb, the light Philosophy Bordeaux blend that goes with red meat and the dark, smoky Ontology, a big Chambourcin that should be paired with dark chocolates.
Visitors are welcome to bring a picnic to eat outside or purchase one of the picnic packages, which come complete with a bottle of wine and a blanket. Kids are welcome in the tasting room but dogs should be kept outside. Those interested can sign up for twice daily tours of the estate, complete with a tasting of the winery’s current offerings.

for the community in sustainable agriculture and to emphasize the ability to grow vegetables and fruits immediately and showcase them in an environment that is really world class.” Upon arrival, guest are warmly greeted and escorted into the library. The library hosts a modest cocktail reception where guests can enjoy plush seating, local beer and wine lists as well as a cheese and charcuterie

spread while waiting to be seated. Once settled for dinner, the knowledgeable wait staff revisited the menu and informed guests that any and all allergies can be accommodated. Shortly after drinks are served, the Amuse Bouche arrived; a gift from the chef that was inspired by their garden bounty. “The menu is centered around what is available around that particular time of year,” Witte said. “So each month the menu changes, but it typically consists of 4-6 starter courses, 3-4 entrée courses and 3 desserts.” During this visit, the first course offered two delicious choices, the Bloody Mary Salmon featuring a vodka-and-honey glazed salmon, green tomato and chili coulis, horseradish ice cream, vodka cream, dill pickle shallots carrots and carrot tops. The Pretzel-Crusted Pork Loin was equally as tasty with surrey ham, honey mustard reduction, pretzel fettuccini, ramps and green onions. The second course boasted two light salads. The twist on the Caprese included heirloom
tomatoes, sea salt-black pepper tomato sorbet, garden greens, green tomato dressing, basil ice cream, tomato-basil terrine, chèvre mousse and crostini rounds. The Spring Salad with Potatoes was a mix of white potatoes, shaved baby carrots and carrot tops, radishes, dried greens dust, basil, lavender flowers, garden greens, truffle aioli and green peppercorn-basil oil. There were three main entrées to select from, two of the most notable from the menu were: The Grilled NY Strip and the Jerked Tilefish. The strip was a guest favorite made with poached beets, apples, sweet potatoes, pear, honey demi-glace and kale paper. The tilefish offered a great sea alternative, with the citrus salsa, charred shallots and candied jalapeños, blistered tomatoes, coconut jasmine pudding, cilantro, suprême and zest.
