I can honestly tell you that I don't know what I ate today (apart from the Pumpkin Juice and Butterbeer). I have a vague recollection of eating a Cornish Pastie at The Three Broomsticks (but can't explain not having a photo)....what was wrong with!!!! My last full day and I fail on a food photo....oops!
Anyway, I will make it all up over tonights dinner. I was tossing up between the two Emeril's restaurants and this one won, perhaps because it was in the same hotel
Arriving to a very busy restaurant, I was seated at the bar overlooking the kitchen. Exactly where a foodie wants to be in my opinion. I was also seated next to a lovely couple who were quite happy chit chatting about travel and food.
The waitress took my order and the feasting began.
Prawn Crackers
Nibbling on these with my cocktail was a great way to ease into dinner.
Pineapple Acai Drop
Lemon drop with pineapple vodka and
amazon acai. Devine!
Polynesian kicked up Crab Cake, with Mango Habanero Butter Sauce and caramelised pineapple compote
This was a great crab cake. Hot, crispy and the pineapple compote was lovely with it.
Tender Sake Short Ribs, caramelised onion mash potatoes, hoisin-honey infused veal jus
As far as ribs go, these were pretty tasty and tender. I loved teh caramelised onion mash. This was a big portion and I couldn't eat it all, knowing that I wanted dessert for a change!
Crispy Guava & Sweet Cream Cheese Dumplings with Mango and Lilikoi Sauces
Wow, these were surprisingly good. When they came out, the presentation was so nice I didn't want to ruin it! But I dug in and they were gorgeous! Definitely a perfect dish to end the meal.
The whole meal blended together, each dish complimenting the other including the cocktail.
I loved watching what was happening in the kitchen too.
