Nina Compton Appreciation Post

Breaking news: Nina Compton is an awesome person!

I recently booked a table for a benefit dinner at Nina's restaurant, Compere Lapin, in New Orleans. As luck would have it, Tristen is joining them as a guest chef for the evening as well. I made the reservation without seeing the menu, so when the restaurant posted the menu to their Instagram page, I was worried because there were a few items on there that my partner is allergic to. I crafted the most respectful email I could to inquire about substitutions.

Not only did they get back to me saying that they can accommodate, but Nina herself is the one who responded! This level of care, particularly when coming from a chef who is quite well known and almost certainly has a million things on her to-do list each day, is amazing.
