The dish: Pumpkin bisque with shrimp and crab
Owned and operated by Harlem locals Leticia Skai Young and chef Raymond Mohan, who’s originally from Guyana, LoLo’s refers to the Locally Owned, Locally Operated seaside eateries the couple encountered while in the British West Indies, called lolos. Mohan, who trained under Jean-Georges Vongerichten and David Burke before becoming chef de cuisine at Aquarella in Puerto Rico, offers a seafood-heavy menu with a Latin-by-way-of-New-England spin. For the fall, his take on a classic pumpkin bisque features luscious chunks of shrimp and crab. It’s served with one of LoLo’s classic johnnycakes slathered in honey butter, making it big enough for a small meal or as a perfect starter.
