In 2016, I was looking at another year old and my baby was suffering. At this time, some friends could n’t bear the temptation of food. At the same time, I had dinner with Hakansan chef, and acquaintances could send wine. All kinds of temptations, immediately surrendered and surrendered, driving to a glittering Michelin star on a torrential rain (and again) nightGary Danko.
We were set a long time in advance, but we still waited for a while after we arrived. Fortunately, the bar was cool enough and the bartender was handsome enough, so I put up with it. Unfortunately, I was not too satisfied with the vesper from the handsome bartender, but After I was seated, my buddies sent me the Rose wine I loved, so the mood of eating improved again.
The restaurant has a tasty menu with five courses to choose from. In fact, I prefer to choose 3, 4 or 5 courses from the general menu. If you choose 5 course, the price is the same as the tasty menu and you can choose any combination of your favorite dishes. It is not limited to the same appetizer to dessert. As long as you are happy, you can eat 5 appetizers or 5 desserts.
Since we have no money and can't be willful, we chose 4 course (in fact, I think 3 course is enough ...). The advantage of coming out with the foodie buddy is that you can taste the dishes you ordered together.
When we were ordering two amuse-bouche in succession, I have always loved the so-called "make your mouth happy" small meals freely given by the chef, super satisfying a curious baby for all dishes The desire to taste a bite and not get bored while waiting for dinner.
The first dish is pumpkin soup. Well, I said it was low. Of course, this is not an ordinary pumpkin thick soup, but I was busy looking at the menu and didn't hear what the waiter said. I just felt that the soup was thick and fragrant, hanging my appetite.
The next one is Caviar & Salmon Amuse Bouche. Caviar and smoked salmon are filled with fillings on the puff pastry. It is full of satisfaction in one bite.
After dinner, since there is not too much dessert appetite, and all the meats look delicious, I decided to order one appetizer, two seafood and one meat. (Voiceover of friends: Anyway, you will eat our desserts anyway-ah don't understand me so hahaha)
Appetizers
Seared Foie Gras with Caramelized Onions and Apples
As a foie gras enthusiast, foie gras is always a must. The weight of the foie gras is very sufficient here, which is enough for four people to eat. Fat is not ridiculous, every bite has a sense of oil explosion, while eating secretly, after the injury, the cholesterol will burst ..
Glazed Oysters with Osetra Caviar, Salsify and Lettuce Cream (Glazed Oysters with Osetra Caviar, Salsify and Lettuce Cream)
A friend ordered it and it was not amazing to take a small bite, but generally I prefer to eat oysters, because at least the oysters look bigger ...
Risotto with Rock Shrimp, Dungeness Crab, Shimeji Mushrooms and Butternut Squash (Risotto with Rock Shrimp, Dungeness Crab, Shimeji Mushrooms and Butternut Squash)
Sometimes I think that the characteristic of Western food is that it lists all the main ingredients and looks very attractive, but this risotto is really delicious ~ Think about all the ingredients in it. After Haishan's delicious hodgepodge, cough, how can risotto not taste good! I regret not having this one ...
Fish and Seafood
I ordered two seafood dishes, the first one was Horseradish Crusted Salmon Medallion with Dilled Cucumbers and Mustard Sauce (wasabi layered salmon with cumin cucumber salad and mustard sauce)
This taste belongs to those who love and hate. Children who like mustard (such as me) feel good. Children who hate mustard (such as the opposite partner) can't stand the smell.
Tucao time: This dish translation is really exhausting, Google translates as horseradish crusted salmon (Is anyone still eating this translation ?! Feel super bloody + disgusting, okay ?!)
Roast Maine Lobster with Potato Purée, Blood Oranges, Edamame and Basil (Roast Maine Lobster with Potato Purée, Blood Oranges, Edamame and Basil)
This dish was praised by Yelpers a hundred times, and it was good to order it. Eat lobster to Maine. (Remember the author last time they drove from New York to Maine and rushed into a lobster shop. The New Jersey lobster arrived, and the whole team suddenly felt like a horse and a galloping horse). The maine lobster meat is tender and tender, and the mashed potatoes must have been licked by the potato with my seafood. The acidity of the blood orange is just the right taste after eating Hesse.
Tucao time: eating lobster to Maine—The book said that the author and his team drove all the way from New York to Maine and rushed into a lobster shop. The boss said with excitement that you are lucky. Today you have a freshly arrived New Jersey lobster. Suddenly the grass and horses galloped. But in the end I ate the Maine lobster and talked to comfort.
Branzini (European seabass) with Fennel Purée, Niçoise Olives and Saffron-Orange Emulsion (European sea bass with fennel puree, olive and saffron orange sauce)
This dish was ordered by a friend. The sea bass is delicious, but the author (just again) tasted only a small mouthful of fennel puree.
Seared Sea Scallops with Lentils, Roasted Peppers, Potatoes, Parsley and Madras Curry Vinaigrette (Madras Curry Roasted Scallops with Lentils, Potatoes, Roasted Peppers and Coriander)
Continue to watch others eating in the bowl. The author has always loved scallops. The smooth and tender white scallops are paired with a bit of curry flavored vinegar sauce, and they are dealt with in three, five, and two.
Meat and Game Birds
The author is already full after eating the meat, so the review of the dishes afterwards may be slightly biased, but I still try to express the taste of the food.
Roast Quail Stuffed with Mushroom Ragout, Leeks, Quinoa and Foie Gras on Black Eyed Peas, Ham Hocks and Maitake )
This is the last of my 4 courses. Quail has always been a classic item of French cuisine. Gary Danko has spent time filling it. The foie gras sauce is very flavorful. The only drawback is that it is a bit salty inside, and it looks good with beans.
Seared Filet of Beef with Potato Gnocchi, Swiss Chard and Bordelaise Butter (Fried Filet of Beef with Potato Gnocchi, Beef and Bordelaise Butter)
Gnocchi is a type of pasta whose main ingredients are potato flour and eggs. Freshly made gnocchi is very chewy and delicious, but this time we were a bit disappointed. The texture of gnocchi is completely wrong and feels a bit thin. The filet mignon did what it should, and the meat was tender.
Dessert
I do n’t order desserts, so I just tried them a bit, so I will make a few comments until the end, transfer, transfer.
Grand Marnier Soufflé with Creamsicle Ice Cream and Two Sauces (Grand Marnier Soufflé with Creamsicle Ice Cream and Two Sauces)
Baked Chocolate Soufflé with Two Sauces
Gary Danko's Souffle is very famous. The waiter will bring the roasted Souffle to your table and drizzle with two different sauces. The ingredients of Shu Fu Lei are mainly protein and sugar. The hot air from the oven grows quickly after it is released from the oven and then collapses quickly, so enjoy it while you are hot ~
Lemon Soufflé Cake with Crème Fraîche Panna Cotta and Raspberry Sorbet (Cream Soufflé Cake with Crème Fraîche Panna Cotta and Raspberry Sorbet)
Friends who want to eat Souffle should note that Souffle cake is not Souffle! Generally I know that the souffle cake is relatively light, but Gary Danko's souffle cake has a bit more ice cream cake texture. I do n’t know if it ’s Panna Cotta's relationship.
In fact, even if you do n’t order any dessert, there will be small dessert plates delivered after dinner. Most of them are a variety of small cookies and fudge chocolates.
and! Since it's my birthday, the restaurant also sent in a dark chocolate mousse cake and cute little candles. It felt very warm ~
After this encounter, the chef also packed a banana muffin cake for everyone for breakfast tomorrow! Although it is best to eat it the next day, I still feel sweet and smooth after eating it for two or three days. There is also a cheese muffin in the middle, and it really is the banana muffin that does not follow the usual path!
Finally, the author used the code to go to the cramped hands and gave you two small messages:
- I want to order a little partner of the menu, one of the 5 courses of the menu is the A Selection of Farmhouse and Artisanal Cheeses Presented Tableside. Although we didn't order it, the author went to take a photo to show you all kinds of wonderful cheeses. Cheese lovers please don't let go!
2. When ordering desserts, you can choose to make crepe crepes on the table at the table. It will have a fireworks effect. This show (off) will cost 6 knives per person at the table. Sister (han) 's little friends are definitely nothing! If you already know the girl (or man) who performs the secret tricks of desserts (that is, put some wine in a typical chef's pot and set it on fire), please pretend that you don't know how to scream with innocent eyes, are you good?
Above, happy birthday to me, thank you for watching ~
