xmas eve pre fixe dinner @ forchetta.
cherry tomato mozarella, toast with pate.
salad, abalone, baby octopus, scallop.
truffle soup with a really soft poached egg + tuffle oil.. and i think monkfish liver.. this was my favorite dish of the meal.
prawn, with curried gnocchi and bamboo.
a palette cleanser of floral ice with foam.. for some reason i tasted egg white. did not particularly enjoy.. i like it better when he sticks with yuzu.
my entree choice of new zealand beef rib. tender + juicy. the mushrooms and sticky taro on the plate did not particularly complement the meat…
chocolate lava cake with raspberry puree. cute reindeer.
i have to say the flavors were all over the place this meal, and not necessarily harmonious.. i usually really enjoy forchetta, so this was a first.
