Popcorn's good for the movies, but if you're watching Hollywood's biggest night, you want to class things up a bit. Here with some gourmet party snack ideas is Kevin Flannery, General Manager of the award-winning New York City restaurant, Ocean Prime.
Flannery introduces us to the restaurant's Truffle Popcorn, which is seasoned with truffle oil, kosher salt, and chopped herbs. He also serves up carrot cake pops inspired by Ocean Prime's famous 10-Layer Carrot Cake.
But the menu items are always served smoking, as Flannery demonstrates with a Smoking Shelfish Tower, and the restaurant's bespoke Berries & Bubbles cocktail.
The U.S. economy surprisingly accelerated to a 2.4% annual growth rate from April through June, showing continued resilience in the face of steadily higher interest rates resulting from the Federal Reserve’s 16-month-long fight to bring down inflation.
