Greenpoint’s Gator (105 Norman Ave.) opened in December in the space that was home to French bistro, Le Fond. Chef Allyx Seemann, who worked at local favorite Nura (46 Norman Ave.), is the chef and owner of the new spot that she named after her own childhood moniker. 

For this week’s addition to the Community Cookbook, Chef Seemann has shared the recipe for the grainy mustard dressing that tops Gator’s radicchio salad.

“We recommend serving the salad with mixed winter citrus segments or rounds, Maldon salt, and candied nuts,” Chef Seemann explained.
