A glass of South African Red Wine, tall thin glass, slow moving legs, pungent floral scent, fruity and woodsy taste, excellent temperature
Filet Mignon carpaccio well oiled and lightly vinegared with capers, lettuce, cherry onions and hard cheese
A variety of bread, both flat and risen, white, rye and wheat with a seasoned hummus
Salmon, braised at a high temperture to lock in flavor, warmed on grill.
Chunky mashed potatoes on the side with garlic and rosemary herbs, no salt needed
Yellow fin tuna, grilled with pinkish center
Fluffy fried sweet potato on the side
Steamed asparagus with butter and garlic herbs
A chopped salad with light vinegrette, nuts and tomatoes
A ripened papaya, sliced by my dad, grown by him from the garden down stairs. The tree is about 25 feet high. We captured it the day before with the bamboo papaya picker. Seeing the half slice waiting for me with a large spoon on the table was the most memorable part of the meal.
Great food. Authentic dessert. Loving company...'nuff said.
