http://live.pirillo.com/ – Typically when you go to a restaurant you get a menu and select what plat you want. But, some restaurants have a tasting menu where you can taste just about every dish they offer. They’re small plates, but there are a lot of them.

Since Chris and Ponzi’s birthdays are about a week apart, they go to a restaurant with a tasting menu as a yearly treat.

Do you try the tasting menus at those restaurants?

Birthday Dinner: Tasting Menu

]]> Birthday Dinner: Tasting Menu

We didn’t have any cake or ice cream to celebrate my birthday today, but we did have quite an amazing dinner at Rover’s in Seattle. This is a once-a-year experience for Ponzi and myself, although we may make an exception to that rule when my parents visit in a few weeks (for Gnomedex, as they are as much a part of the conference as I am). Anyway, here’s a few of the things we had tonight in the Rover’s tasting menu. It was amazing, as always.

  • Ahi Tuna Tartare with Cucumber Salad and White Sturgeon Caviar
  • Dungeness Crab Cake with Roasted Pepper, Greens and Lemon–Oregano Dressing
  • Maine Lobster with Quinoa and Shellfish Nage
  • Oregon Quail with Roasted Baby Beet, Wild Boar Prosciutto and Sage Reduction
  • Copper River Salmon with Fava Bean, Smoked Bacon and Red Wine Sauce
  • Lamb Medallion with Grilled Onion, Zucchini and Black Peppercorn Sauce
  • Scrambled Egg with Lime Crème Fraîche and White Sturgeon Caviar

We also had a small plate of fois gras, though the more I learn about it, the more I want to become a vegetarian (politically speaking).
