Sorry for the crappy formatting here..having a technology challenge I haven't sorted out yet. This was an amazing meal...probably the best meal I've had in a restaurant. We chose the 6 course tasting and let the guys in the kitchen have at it. KnyfeKnerd and the rest of the team did an amazing job. Literally nothing was wrong....and I really enjoyed a few items that I would have never ordered from the menu.
Nutella Martini. Surpisingly well balanced, kind of like an adult chocolate milk.
A starter of 5 caviars with house-made creme fresch, and fresh thyme. Served on a 240MM wa-gyuto with kuro uchi, maybe KK will identify it for us.
None of it survived......nice custom handle on the knife too...
Seared scallops with purple cauliflower, kohlrabi, light green cauliflower, and micro-greens...with a sauce of bacon and figs. An amazingly complex and well-balanced dish.
Sous vide (guessing) pork belly with chiffonade of mustard greens, sweet soy, rice, napa cabbage. This was the best item of the night. The pork was the best I've ever had...succulent, salty, rich, deeply caramelized...simply amazing
Sliced ribeye, topped with a quail egg and served over forbidden wild rice, white asparagus, and a sauce of truffle oil and black garlic. Garnished with sunflower greens. Incredible textures and flavors....not quite the equal of the pork though
Forgot the cheese course...Dessert was chocolate torte, cherry turnover, and graham cracker ice cream. All very well executed, but the ice cream was brilliant.
