Estación Liceu

Saturday

Last Saturday was our Day of Fun. We went to an art fair and a winery before checking in to a B&B. Then it was the main event, the six course dinner with the corresponding wine flight. So, so amazingly good. The restaurant we went to emphasizes the use a lot of fresh, organic, local food and I think it definitely came through on the taste.

Champagne and blue skies, what a way to start the menu...



Course 1, Salad



Baby greens with a buttermilk-dill vinaigrette with baby beets and salami americano.
Paired with champagne.

Course 2, Soup



Chilled sugar snap pea soup blended with mint and garnished with a pea shoot.
Paired with a crisp riesling.

Course 3, Fish



Sockeye salmon, spicy mustard couscous, grilled asparagus, and tomato beurre blanc. (My favorite course!)
Paired with pinot grigio.

Course 4, Meat



Seared tenderloin, white earth wild rice, asparagus tips, lardons, and morel au jus. (Least favorite course.)
Paired with cabernet.

Course 5, Cheese Plate



Trumpeter Meadow, Winter Sun, and Northern Lights Bleu Cheese along with blueberry honey and crostinis.
Paired with chianti.

Course 6, Dessert



Strawberry Napoleans with vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, and a sprig of mint.
Paired with port.
