Les Régions de France - Bordeaux
Pour Commencer:
Kummoto Oyster Bordeaux Mignonette
Wow - who knew we liked raw oysters. Both preparations were good. The one on the left is a red wine mignonette (Sue's favorite) and with horseradish foam (Mark's preference). Actually makes me want to go out and try more...
L’Entree
Slow Cooked Monkfish pearl onion confit, wilted spinach
Hard to go wrong with slow roasted anything - kind of like deep fried - but for the healthy folks. And those pearl onions! WOW.
La Viande
Amish Chicken Leg Roulade spring vegetable, sauce albufera
Amazingly tender and flavorful. Some of the best mashed potatoes I've had in a long while...
Le Dessert
Milk Chocolate Mousse
What's not to like with chocolate mousse. nice granola type crunch for contrast in mouthfeel. Golden raisins weren't needed (IMHO), but not bad.
