Executive chef Dan Barber, center right, and chef Bastien Guillochon, center left. By Tom Sietsema Tom Sietsema Food critic Email Bio Follow Food critic April 24 at 10:00 AM Profiling has become a dirty word in this country.

Barber later tells me he was inspired after eating at the novel El Bulli in Spain and encountering steamed shrimp after a parade of head-spinning dishes. His point: If an ingredient is perfect, “I can’t do anything to make it better.
