This is the time of year where dinner parties and receptions abound. We attended a lovely farewell dinner for dear friends at the British Ambassador's home the other night. Here's our menu. (Just thought you might be looking for some ideas for that special meal you've been wanting to serve up.) Aubergine timbale topped with smoked salmon and caviar Duck breast in a cherry sauce Sauteed asparagus and shallots served on a potato mash Almond & pear tart Vanilla ice cream Dalton, Sauvignon Blanc 2005 Barka, Pinotage 2004 By the way, the Aubergine timbale resembled a tin of fancy feast over turned on my little plate, loaded with strips of salmon and topped with a hearty serving of bright orange caviar surrounding a salmon rosette on top. I was thankful that my mama taught me to eat everything on my plate....even and especially when it's not my preferred meal. The duck, however, was wonderful. I wonder if you can find breast of duck in the US and just how much I'd pay for it...hmmmm...something to explore next year when it's time to move again.
Bon Appitite! Maggie |
