a quiet 6th year celebration

went to gunther's @ purvis street on monday for dinner to celebrate the 6 year wedding anniversary...my oh my the food was good...i went into paroxysms of ecstasy with every mouthful...drooling

was actually intending beforehand to convince mrs kona to share a 2 person rack of kurobuta pork wif me...but unfortunately not available...waiting

ended up with

  1. home-made torchon of foie gras with seasonal fruit compote - shared
  2. pan-fried brittany langoustine with fresh tarragon and salted french butter - shared
  3. consumme of pigeon, warm egg yolk, champignon de paris - shared
  4. angel-hair pasta, chili monte poro, kombu, dried prawns, chives - mine
  5. coquille of pasta, grilled kurobuta pork shoulder, truffle juice, parmesan cheese - hers

everything was excellent but the kurobuta pork shoulder was out of this world...i'd go back just for that, for sure...

too full after that for dessert, but we ended up @ TCC for blue mountain coffee...a fab end to a wonderful night of dining...big grin

would have loved to have take photos (even with a lousy cameraphone) BUT the damn phone chose sunday to completely and utterly go berserk...gotta send the fella in for a service...and my spare phone has no camera...damn...
