The amusing antics of a squirrel at play. Sorry about the waving about of the camera, but I didn't have time to grab a tripod
Our little "Amuse the Mouth"! Poufy one is err.. something soufle with diced cucumber and lychee. 2nd spoon is cucumber jelly with crab and gold-flecked balls.. Not entirely sure what I ate, but it was an example of "molecular gastronomy", pretty interesting stuff!
Pig head terrine with apple; crispy pork crackling with mustard and sage
The ultimate bar snack. The ultimate any time snack. This coming from a serious snacker: these two bites were seriously scrumptious, especially that long strand of pork crackling snaking off its slate plates.
The plate was already set up when we arrived at 416 and it was both decor and edible amuse(ment).
A little bonus course at the start: pork liver mousse with sea salt, fennel flowers, and a savory little cracker.
This is at the sWine dinner at Secco Wine Bar this week, a grand collaboration between the chef and cooks at Secco and a few other Richmond cooking luminaries. This opener is from Secco's own Tim Bereika.
The Hirshhorn Museum is located on the Mall in Washington DC. I was passing by in October 2009 just when a nasty rain started so I popped indoors. The art is interesting but way over my head. The whole time I was there I wondered why anyone paid for this stuff and how much it sold for. I found some things amusing, others were just bizarre. I tried to keep the names of the pieces straight but it wasn't easy. However, I'm glad I went, if only to get out of the rain.
