Ok, last night had the Italian Degustation dinner. It was sensational. Food from all Italian regions and matching wines from the same regions. The wines were a bit of a waste on me as I dont drink, but my mates got well drunk with the extra they were having courtesy of me.
I got better at taking pics as the night went on, sitting at a huge table with half the restaurant, no one cared i was taking pics.
I took the menu home so I'd remember what each one was.
I forgot to get a pic of the first entree, which was Buffalo mozzarella with baby beetroot, I could have eaten that all night
2nd entree (forgot to use flash!) Venetian baccala cod on crispy polenta. Very goodness
1st main I guess you'd call it. Homemade caserecce, basil pesto with beans, pine nuts and potato. Also unreal.
2nd main, home made pappardelle (pasta), duck ragu, white wine, duck liver & potato
3rd main, Swordfish, cherry tomato, berry capers, black olives
4th meal, Braised wild boar shoulder, red wine, wild mushrooms, chocolate sauce
Dessert, Vanilla sponge with chocolate & hazelnut cream
Great night. Awesome food and lots of laughs
