Going organic!
Today there is foie gras on country whole wheat toast, wild smoked Scottish salmon with blinis and crème fraîche, magret of duck, seared, very rare, with a cranberry habañero compote, roasted beets, sweet potatoes and turnips with fresh rosemary and Jerez vinegar, greens in vinaigrette, an array of organic cheeses, and honey hazelnut madeleines with plum and Cabernet sorbet. The wine is a Pinot Noir from France, champagne with dessert. Espresso to finish.
Happy Holiday!
