so i must confess – i did not have a fun time with my camera this evening and instead of perfecting anything, i dove right in, eating everything put before me. i mean – can you blame me? when it comes to describing the delicious food we feasted on that night at Nikki’s, well it’s difficult because sometimes you know, words can’t do the describing. you gotta be able to taste the deliciousness!
but for you – i shall do my best.
we started off eating the most intriguing bread i’d had in a long time. laced with blue cheese and walnuts it was amazing on it’s own and then when we got to the boeuf bourguignon – using it to get every last bit of juiciness from the bowl was key!
and don’t let me forget that soup. that soup – white bean, sage and prosciutto was rich and creamy and smoky. i’d eat it as a meal on it’s own that’s for sure! the salad was fresh leafy greens tossed in a mustard-parmesan-garlic dressing and a parmesan crisp to top it off.
and then dessert – oh that cheesecake! i think i licked the plate if i remember correctly. the salted caramel sauce that was atop that cheesecake with perfect caramelized apples – delectable!
until the next travelling crockpot – we actually have two crockpots this month! a collective holiday feast and my dinner! holiday pressure!
