French Again

Thursday (8-20-09) we were invited to Jim & Deb's for dinner. It was supposed to be a French style meal with individual courses. Jim said, "Ain't gonna happen". It's going to be more laid back.
He lied. Okay, based on his indication and not knowing what we were eating I brought egg rolls. We loved them but..........................Chinese & French???? Why not? That and crackers & cheese, free flowing wine ( and Scotch) was the perfect start to Deb's gourmet & French contribution. She is a great "Chef" vs. cook and outdid herself (as usual)

The menu:

Le Poulet roti d'Agrume avec le sauce de creme d'ail
(Roasted cirtus chicken with garlic cream sauce)
Braised Asparagus
Fresh tomato tart
Salad with mixed greens, pine nuts, hearts of palm and balsamic vinegarette.

Dessert was (of course) Creme Brulee, carmelized by JP, and accompanied by 4 fresh and luvious strawberries. Kentucky grown I'm sure.

Review:
Great presentation--- 5 stars
Taste--- over the top 5 stars
Ease of prep---not too bad
Hosts --------The Best------6 stars out of 5
Summary------Awesome, Mobil couldn't compete.


An gastronomic meal. Delicious. Thanks. Let's do it again.
