Amuse Bouche

Cured duck breast and apricot compote. Extra virgin olive oil and pepper.

 

Notes: Very good apricot. Totally overwhelmed the cured duck, which I don't remember tasting at all.

Best Italian food in Mexico

Course 3, a crisp chiccharone topped with finely diced sauerkraut, tiny piped dollops of blood pudding and a bacon aioli. It was like an airy h'orderves, but gone are the boring pate on cracker days, instead a well balanced, and pretty triple-bite that just evaporates as it hits the tongue neither weighing down the palate nor leaving that back of the throat lingering sensation (i.e. no chiccharone burps) which I appreciated especially since 1) we had a full dinner of many tastes ahead; 2) there's nothing worse to ruin a nice experience than to have an overwhelming taste haunt that back of your throat on a nice night. (A bit too much detail, I am aware, but it is a detail that could affect a nice experience).

Since we said we're supposed to be amusing, I guess I'll just totally embarrass myself with this shot ... which is actually quite typical for what I usually end up doing when photographed! I know I look totally ridiculous compared to all the gorgeous glamour shots in the aMuse pool, but ... oh well!

My first attempt at doing a photo shoot with a band. After moving indoors from the frigid Winnipeg winter, we did the entire shoot inside Renee's tiny apartment with the help of a white sheet and couch.

 

Easily Amused is a local Winnipeg band that is composed of Renee Lamoureux and Keith Macpherson (you may recognize Keith from Canadian Idol). They offer up a great range of music, from heart-felt folk, to funky rock. Their great personalities and wonderful musical abilities make them a real blast to see live.
