Tonight my wife and another couple went to Bistro Blanc (north of DC) to celebrate my 60th birthday. I had heard good things about it and wanted to go somewhere that had a KKF member as chef to make it a bit more personal. I had PMed Chef Janny about coming and he was very welcoming. Well, the restaurant, food and especially Janny were all wonderful. He came out early on to meet us and I was surprised by how young he was and it was a thrill to meet my first forum member in person. It's nice to know you guys aren't all axe murderers. :lol2:
Janny was very generous, sending out little surprises for us throughout the meal. Had my first raw oyster as a shooter with blood Orange and other ingredients. Very refreshing. My main course was red snapper that included two of my favorite spring ingredients - morels and ramps. It was all excellent, as was everyone else's food.
I had brought a couple of knives for show and tell, but the kitchen was just too busy by the end of our meal to take Janny away from his work. Maybe another time. I hope our server conveyed to you, Janny, how truly appreciative we were of everything. It was a very memorable evening.
