Dinner: Friday July 27th, 2007

Guests: birthday girl Lisa, Rob (birthday girl's main squeeze), Kinga, Jay and I

This weeks' dinner was very special, because we were celebrating Lisa's birthday. Jay went all out, it was sooooooo goooood..

Drink: Clear Blue
- Stolichnaya blueberry vodka, white cranberry juice, soda water, and fresh blueberries to garnish
Appetizer: for me crusted baked brie on a bed of baby greens, roasted red peppers,and sauteed chanterelles
- for the rest of the group crusted baked goat cheese on a bed of baby greens, roasted red peppers,and sautéed chanterelles
Main:
- Kobe beef steak
- lobster double baked potatoes
- garlic sautéed shrimp
- sweet sautéed scallops
- baby carrots, sugar beets, and fava beans
The steak was unreal, excellent crust on the outside, and just buttery melt in your mouth texture on the inside, and the potatoes... mmmmmm.... I love potatoes.... We had an excellent bottle of red wine along with our main (a 2004 Syrah DeMartino Legado Reserva from Choapa Valley in Chile)

Dessert: Milk chocolate banana pudding...
- the presentation was so nice, but I totally forgot to take pictures, I remembered at the very end... so here are some leftovers
