Haha!!! You'd be super stuffed. It doesn't look like it in the pic but this was a 5lbs rack! But yes... Very yummy. And I had a cold brew to wash it down.

Thinking about Chili right now while at work is making me drool a little.

Dinner with my mom last night at a (relatively) new restaurant in the city

Started off with "shooters"

I had the wagyu tartare with whole grain mustard, pears and raw quail egg, my mom had the hamachi with acovado, ginger, tobiko & ponzu



Next up I ordered Kobe sliders with cheddar & gruyere, bacon jam served with sweet potato fries (devoured them without thinking to take pics)

Compliments of the pastry chef (one of my mom's friends) we got 4 bacon-wrapped scallops topped with maple kabocha squash, cocoa vinaigrette (with crushed cocoa nibs) and aioli

And we also got complimentary mizuna salad: truffle vinaigrette, navel orange slices, rice-crisps and sliced caciotta (cheese) made with black truffles

Main I got 6oz filet served with maple bacon, roasted garlic and demi glace sauce (hella bacon-y)



Mom ordered jasmine tea-smoked chicken with chili-garlic eggplant, pickled mustards, celery salad



And we split truffled mac & cheese as a side dish: gruyere, mozzarella & cheddar




For dessert, again compliments of the pastry chef, two new things he'd concocted:

First is his take on a creme brulee thingy, except it's all molecular-gastonimied [sic]. Walnut caramel/vanilla mousse thing, on a thin red wine gelee, creme anglaise foam encapsulated in the pink spherical thingy, huckleberries, candied walnuts and red wine spheres (red wine mixed with agar to form a thick liquid, dropped into oil to turn them into spheres)







And second was a riff on the classic molten chocolate lava cake (chocolate cake with hot liquid chocolate center). 'Cept this was so much more. Chocolate and honey molten lava cake (unbelievably insanely tasty), macerated lemon slices, and ice cream wrapped in a tuile

Ho ho holy frack. Had an Ike's Place sammich for the first time yesterday and it was everything it's cracked up to be!

I ordered the Ménage à Trois (bbq, cheddar, halal chicken, honey mustard, pepper jack, real honey, swiss ) and added stuffed jalapeño poppers to that, washing it all down with a Leninade
