    In this video, executive chef Hector Playuk shows how to prepare three signature dishes which are currently offered at Jack’s Restaurant & Bar in Washington, D.C. We first start out with the Caesar Salad Served in a Parmesan Basket, then we make the Linguini with Maine Lobster, Caramelized Fennel, Asparagus, Shallots, Purple Basil, and Tomatoes in a Light Spicy Brandy Sauce and finally the Filet Mignon served with Roasted Potatoes, Sautéed Spinach and topped with a Foie Gras and Port Wine Reduction. It is our hope that by watching this video we will entice viewers to get into the kitchen and cook with family and friends, but when in Washington come by Jack’s and we will be more than happy to save you the trouble.

    Hi! My name is Hector Playuk, the Executive Chef at Jacks Bar & Restaurant, Washington D.

    C. I will show you how to cook a lobster for the Linguini-Lobster with the spicy brandy sauce. I prefer to use fennel to boil the water. We got one fresh fennel, we cut in four. Fennel will give you nice flavor on the lobster. We place inside the water, we get the lobster, I prefer to use pound-and-a half each. Be careful, lobster is alive. We place the lobster from the bottom to the top in the boiling water for about ten minutes. Then we take the lobster out, we are going to place in the bath with ice, to start to clean with. This is how you cook lobster to do the Linguini-Lobster with the spicy brandy sauce.
