2012_10_blanca.jpgPete Wells on the recent discovery that Blanca pastry chef Katy Peetz serves a radish watermelon dessert that bears some similarities to a dessert by Dirt Candy's Amanda Cohen: "Chefs borrow ideas all the time; the good ones will add a riff of their own; ideas grow and morph; cuisine evolves. Some day, watermelon-radish ice cream may be as popular as molten chocolate cake. And that, I imagine, will be just fine with Ms. Cohen, as long as everybody remembers where the idea came from."
