These people did their best to make sure that we were pleased with everything in the dining room. Puto frequently made flambe of some flavor right near our table.

When you are carmelizing sugar, if you will use the cut side of a lemon to stir instead of a spatula or spoon, the sugar will not burn and stick to the pan.
Thank you Puto for that tip.
