Ran the first night of my second ever three course menu last night, on my birthday. It went fabulously. Here's the menu again in case you didn't see it in the musing thread.
I always have a great time in the kitchen. It's stressful and hot and at times sticky and/or greasy, but it's home and I really do love my job. Anyway, always gotta capture some instas of my dishes when I do a menu! So here you go!
Appy: Cilantro cranberry quinoa salad with butter poached lobster, pickled onions and balsamic vinegar. Nearly sold out, only a couple portions of lobster left.
Entree:Cubano style frenched pork shank served on black beans and rice, Completely sold out, i have none for tonight so I'm switching to a different entree completely with Arctic Char.
Dessert: Dark chocolate and walnut brownie with coconut rum sauce garnished with toasted coconut and fresh strawberry. Also sold out last night so I have to make another batch today.
All and all... Successful! Woo! We'll see how tonight goes, but it's pretty impressive i'm told to knock it out of the park a second time as my first three course was also a huge success!
