Sweets & Savories

Last Thursday I went out to din din to celebrate a raise I just got at work. And after some research heard that Sweets & Savories on Fullerton can't be beat. The reviews were all right. It was amazing food, and the night we were there there was a special wine dinner being served. 8 courses with six different wines paired with them. I would have preferred just a normal tasting menu for the pacing and service, but the food was top notch, with good and very friendly, but not always the best service (I don't like having to ask for a knife twice while my food gets cold).

My favorite dish was the scallp with the foie gras on top. But we also had bbq shrimp in pomegranite bbq sauce, halibut with some tamotoes and a tomatoey sauce with mussels, a mushroom risotto with white truffle oil, beef tenderloin with lobster mashed potatoes, goat cheese with some chutney, chardonnay sorbet and then a hot chocolate cake with chocolate sorbet. Each amazingly paired with wine.

I want to go back, ASAP!

Do you realize you could have almost started a zoo with all the animals you ate that night?

Yeah, except all the animals would be dead, and cooked.
