Invitation: Fancy dinner at my house Saturday597 views |

| Let me just preface this by saying we will dine upon the flesh of beasts, and if you are a
vegetarian you will still be hungry when you leave. But for all those without this scruple. I am
going to make up a fancy dinner on Saturday. I'm talking about like three or four courses. I can
seat maybe 5 people in my kitchen. I can cook. First people to RSVP will take it. The price of admission is to bring more beer or wine than you will drink, so when you leave, you had a rad meal and there is beer in my fridge. I shop, cook, do the dishes, clean the house beforehand. Time is TBD, evening. Menu suggestions are accepted. |

| mR. id - 2/12/08, 1:51 pm |
| I'll bring the finest beer my beer friends recommend. |

| matt-L - 2/12/08, 2:27 pm |
| I would invite you and include sea beasts but there's probably going to be duck fat and lardons all over the place |
| alex - 2/12/08, 2:27 pm |
| yeah, forget it. i'll just move to pennsylvania or something and you'll never see me again. |
| ssg - 2/12/08, 2:27 pm |

| matt l makes AMAZING QUICHE |
| streganona - 2/18/08, 2:46 pm |
| this was wonderful, and i was HEALED. |
| matt-L - 2/18/08, 2:51 pm |
| Course 1: Butternut squash and parsnip soup with croutons and fried sage and parsley leaves.
Heavy on the coconut milk. I didn't really think it was so hot but everybody told me it was
delicious because they are good people. Course 2: Shrimp and tilapia tacos. With pineapple and radishes, cilantro and lime. Very fine for one's circulation on a cold day. Course 3: Braised lamb shanks, horseradish mashed potatoes, and apple cider cabbage. Succesful. Dessert: Sweet ricotta and beet crepes. With clementine segments and chiffonaded basil. Sweet ricotta cheese may catch up to crack yet. |
