Cornelius Gallagher, Director of Culinary Operations at Royal Caribbean, is busting up the clichés one gastronomic wonder at a time. Winner of <i>Food & Wine</i> magazine's "10 Best New Chefs in America," Gallagher applies his learnings in some of the worlds top restaurants to create the most innovative seafaring restaurant ever: <a href="http://f.curbed.cc/f/Royal_SP_EALL_090814"><b>Wonderland Imaginative Cuisine</b></a>, on Royal Caribbean International's new game-changer, Quantum of the Seas. <br><p>In a surreal environment of smoke and mirrors, Gallagher employs modern techniques in an innovative and entertaining menu that will make guests feel they've traveled down the rabbit hole at Alice's side. Slow cooked eggs are smoked with hickory under a glass dome, vanishing foie gras noodles disappear before your eyes, and wild flower honey sweetens flash-frozen fruits. Here now, we go into his kitchen to learn about his vision for dining at sea and his detailed preparation of caviar tempura, slow cooked halibut and more. </p>

<br> <p>Booker Noe sure had a lot to say while crafting the big, full flavor of <a href="http://f.curbed.cc/f/KnobCreek_SP_062514_KC">Knob Creek® Bourbon</a>. And for those who would pour a drink and listen, he had endless words of wit and wisdom. Enjoy a taste of some of Booker's famous sayings, which those who knew him called, "Bookerisms".</p>
<br><p>Booker Noe's larger-than-life personality came from growing up in the heart of Kentucky. Having learned the bourbon business from 5 generations of family distillers before him—dating back to 1795. Booker actually introduced the world to Small Batch Bourbon when he released Knob Creek® and is heralded by many as among the greatest bourbon men to ever live. So next time you pour a glass of Knob Creek®, think about the man behind the bourbon and be inspired by his famous "Bookerisms".</p>
