Amuse Bouches

Right: Caviar on a brioche custard dome, red onion, egg yolk pearls, scallion, and crumbles of brioche (though for some reason, they looked like shredded bacon crumbs.

Amuses Bouches

 

Roasted Red Pepper and Comte "Quiche": Tasted just like pimento cheese on pastry.

 

Goat Cheese with Almonds and Green Celery: Really lovely almond flavoring in the goat cheese truffle.

 

Hamachi with Pickled Mushrooms: (On the spoon). Very mild, earthy flavors. I was expecting more tang and salt from the pickled mushrooms.

Amuse:

- Foie Gras, Gelee, Beet Marshmallow.

 

I absolutely loved the Foie with Gelee on both visits.

 

Please take a look at the entire 11 Madison Park/ Lunch picture set, as well as 11 Madison Park/ Dinner set shot earlier this fall. I would also like to give you a chance to see food of 11 Madison Park under much better lighting conditions, photographed and described by ulterior epicure..

The next day we have a leisurely brunch. it is about 45 degrees when we leave.

Florida stone crab claw, tuna crudo, kumquat muscat gelée, hard boiled eggs.

 

This is one of the largest (single) plated amuse I've encountered!

 

My notes:

Meaty crab claw.

Bright sweet light kumquat taste.

Firm and fresh but mild flavoured tuna.

Texture of hard boiled eggs is dense and nice versus crisp sweet peppery diced red onions; while the just cooked fine slices of Chinese broccoli stems hidden in the egg mix is a pleasant contrast in texture. Chopped capers provide a lovely strong briny taste to the egg salad like mixture.

Pretty pastry circles are like mini fried wonton skin crackers; mild in flavour but crisp.

Olive oil drizzle is light and fruity, and tries to bind all the loose elements together. However there are too many items on the plate and I'm a little lost on this very colourful and generous amuse.

Amuse Bouche

Tomato consomme, cauliflower puree, salmon roe, and aged balsamic vinegar.

 

Notes: The tomato "consomme" was more like a consomme jelly. I didn't really get the tomato flavor. But the cauliflower with the salmon roe and balsamic was nice.

 

Strange amuse bouche, I'd have to say. Strange.

Amuse

- watercress, snails, herbs, shellfish broth

 

Amuse was presented on a scallop shell, with frozen watercress powder blanketing the snails. Waitstaff recommended to take the first bite as a palate cleanser, before shellfish broth was poured over. Freshness of the herbs accentuated the rich shellfish broth, and yet stood in the foreground as we enjoyed this canape.

 

Please take a look at the entire Agapé Substance picture set.

Crème fraîche, osetra caviar, red pepper, chives

Amuse Bouches

Mushroom cannelloni, radish with mustard butter and toast, and carrot juice with lime salt.

This amused me massively. Once of the many local Ladas with a 0-60 time of about 2 years, but with a rear spoiler added for those high speed situations. Fluffy dice come to Russia...

"Milk & Honey"

 

Notes: It tasted like 2x milk x 2x honey. These delicate spheroids were served at room temperature, which I think only intensified their sweetness and flavor.
