Guest chefs from all over the world contributed to Festival Gourmet International Vallarta 2008. David Gurewitz, who spent the time at Daiquiri Dick's restaurant, cooked up a wide variety of selections with local, fresh ingredients. He has lived everywhere from the US Midwest to Hong Kong and Paris, so his recipes reflect his travels. Here is his version of rack of lamb.
