Spanish Night -Dos, was dinner for seis at Chef JR's 100 year old Casa.
I must mention that Chef JR & his blushing bride set aside all other commitments for a Date every Saturday night (for 36 years), come hell or high water. So you can imagine, we scarfed up this invitation to a "Saturday Date Night" dinner.
Chef Deb's zucchini/ sun-dried tomato/ chevre, served on an a Platter by artist Linda Jones.
Broccoli, saffron rice & Spanish puerco chops in a concoction
of cebolla, peppers, tomatoes & secret ingredients.
I will beg for the recipe.
As Chef JR took the Le Creuset lid off the main corso, I was sure we had a great shot & story of Failure. Which would make a great Blog entry....
I was slightly disappointed, because a tremendous story was dashed...
a maravilloso entree was plated for the table.
Amazing what a little drizzle does for presentation.
Several Spanish Vino tinto, vino blanco, sherry and
port selections from the owners wine cellar were enjoyed.
The well stocked cellar remains a bit of mystery. I asked for a tour, to no avail.
The evening ended, as it began with display of Judy's jugs.
As with the evening, we were delighted to see them.
Sinceramente,
Chef Pete`
