Chef Patrick O’Connell has amassed almost every culinary award in existence. Seasonal dishes include a crab cake “sandwich” with fried green tomatoes and tomato vinaigrette; sesame-crusted Chilean sea bass with baby shrimp, artichokes and grape tomatoes; rabbit braised in apple cider with wild mushrooms and garlic mashed potatoes; and for dessert, pistachio and white chocolate ice cream terrine with blackberry sauce.
