V - a day early

Jimbo and I had our Valentine's a day early. Neither of us enjoy crowds and since I worked at a restaurant and understand that the food and service are never up to par on a busy holiday, we decided to go it a bit early. What a great choice!

Not only did we beat the holiday rush and had excellent service and food, we also beat the snow! Way to go us!

I should give the credit to Jimbo, though, because he did it all. I didn't even know where we were going until we were about a mile away from our destination. And boy was I happy. Jimbo brought me to the Stonehedge Inn for dinner at Silks for our Valentine's Day. It's exactly what I love - fancy, with white tablecloths, real silver flatware, and a waitstaff of three to call our own. We had a grand old time!

We started out with a bottle of Veuve Cliquot (Jimbo's choice! Woot!) without appetizers, then we sample all four red wines by the glass and had an orgasmic port (Trentadue Chocolate Amore) with dessert.

I had:

Foie Gras on a Cranberry and Pistachio Pancake with Cranberry Sorbet, Sherry Infusion

First Course

Duck Confit with Hazelnut Polenta and Orange Infused Red Cabbage

Jimbo had

Panko Crusted Calamari with Tapenade, Salsa and Aioli

Roast Tenderloin of Venison on Glazed Shallots with Pommes Berny, Wild Mushroom Jus

we shared:

Crispy Strawberry Tartlet with White Chocolate Cream and Vanilla Foam Dessert
