Trip 3 - 9/2-9/4
Victoria and Albert's part 2
We all decided not to do the wine pairing and instead have some cocktails. I think my parents were worried how much wine it would be and I'm just not a fan of wine. My mom and I got the first drink on this menu. The Solerno Espumante.
This drink was very sweet, but I really liked it. On top is a caramelized dried blood orange. Sadly, we were not allowed to keep the jewel thing that was holding it up. (I asked)
My boyfriend got the long island ice tea.
I forgot to take a picture of my dads drink, but he had some sort of scotch.
It was fun dining with my parents, but they were definitely not used to me taking picture of all the food before eating.
This was the 10 course meal for me and my boyfriend. My parents had a completely different menu because they are mostly vegetarians, but also eat fish.
I went with the 7 course again since I like having choices. I also learned this time that if you don't like any of the selections in a certain category you can pick from a different course to replace it. My boyfriend and I ended up picking all the same items except dessert. Neither of us wanted the chicken or quail and ended up doing the salmon from the course above instead.
This was my parents 7 course menu. My mom ended up getting this, while my dad opted for the 10 course. I'm glad he did that because I've been wanting to try some of the items on there. Another nice thing about having my parents there was I got to try all their food.
Up next we are finally getting to the food pictures
