The second rule of bite club...

Daniel and Alicia wowed us again with their cooking finesse on Saturday night. After a harried ride to dinner (damn weekend train schedules), we were almost the last to be seated. It was nice to see some familiar faces again and meet new ones at our table. I am still a bit in awe at who I found myself sitting next to... so crazy! Everything was fantastic as expected, and I am still so impressed at how they manage to do what they do.

The eight courses we were served ranged from decadent to outrageously decadent. Some highlights included the peanut butter foie gras cookie, the sous vide duck egg that went perfectly with the farro and mushroom jus, and the Rancho Gordo yellow eye baked beans. JJ and I really enjoyed the dinner party atmosphere of it. :)

We'll be back on Friday night for a little meetup of sorts. Hehe, cannot wait.
