Hello to everyone reading! Thanks for following along. Let's continue the tour of the Flower and Garden Booths.
Next up we have Primavera Kitchen. We tried the Frozen Margarita with Limoncello and Tequila
Sadly, this was too sweet for me. My brother in law was happy because I promptly dumped my entire drink into his glass
We ate the Frittata di Asparagus: Asparagus Frittata, Mixed Greens, and Citrus Dressing
This was tasty. The greens and asparagus were very fresh.
Finally, we sampled the Panna Cotta al Melone: Cantaloupe Panna Cotta
This was delicious! Lightly sweet and filled with melon flavor. I could have eaten an entire one by myself.
Next we stopped by the Smokehouse: Barbecue and Brews. My husband tried the Beef Brisket Burnt Ends and Smoked Pork Belly Slider with Garlic Sausage, Chorizo, Cheddar Fondue and House Made Pickle and my friend tried the Pulled Pig Slider with Coleslaw. Both were heartily enjoyed. Unfortunately it was very dark and the photos came out blurry, so you will just have to imagine these dishes
Hanami: Japanese Kitchen was next up. Here my niece sampled the Ginger Beef Yakiudon: Thin-sliced Beef, Onions and Noodles tossed on the grill with Soy and Ginger.
She inhaled this and went back for them twice more during the trip. None of us can tell you what they tasted like because she refused to share haha.
My nephew chose the Frushi: Fresh Pineapple, Strawberry and Melon rolled with Coconut Rice, sprinkled with Toasted Coconut on Whipped Cream with Raspberry Sauce on the side
It was sweet, so naturally got the thumbs up from him.
Our next stop was Taste of Marrakesh. We sampled the Harissa Chicken Kebab with Dried Fruit Couscous salad
The adults all liked this. The chicken was tender and the marinade had lots of flavor. The couscous was tasty too, though it was served ice cold. I would have preferred it at room temperature.
We also got the Fried Cauliflower with Capers, Garlic, Parsley, and Chili-Ranch Sauce
This was a tasty bite! The cauliflower was super crispy, and the brininess of the capers worked wonderfully with the fried food. Even my vegetable-averse friend enjoyed sampling this.
I will try and finish up the food booths tomorrow. Lots more photos to come!
