grapefruit gelee and avocado

 

MGM, Las Vegas

Amuse Bouche

Parsnip panna cotta with carrot gelee.

 

Notes: You know the old (foodie) saying: every fine dining meal begins with a white panna cotta. (I've had cauliflower panna cotta, cocoa butter panna cotta (yes, as a savory course), uni panna cotta, malted sunchoke panna cotta, white pepper panna cotta, cucumber panna cotta, Maytag blue cheese panna cotta, sweet corn panna cotta..., etc.). This, I add parsnip panna cotta.

 

What I enjoyed about this pairing, is the earthy, natural sweetness of both root vegetables. The panna cotta was very smooth and silky, the gelee was supple and not too firm. The flavors were very clean and simple, not at all muddy.

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

almond marshmallow, lobster coral (unfertilized eggs), jalapeno.

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).

On being seated, we were brought this lovely smoked salmon amuse-bouche

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!
