𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔉𝔯𝔢𝔫𝔠𝔥 𝔏𝔞𝔲𝔫𝔡𝔯𝔶 𝔭𝔞𝔯𝔱 2 I can finally check it off on my bucket list! I visited @_tfl_ , a three Michelin starred French restaurant in Yountville helmed by the internationally renowned chef, Thomas Keller. It’s an iconic destination that @anthonybourdain once called “the best restaurant in the world, period.” @chefthomaskeller opened the restaurant in 1994 and has maintained three Michelin stars since 2007. The restaurant is located on a historic stone cottage lot, and originally purchased in 1907 by Madeline Lande for a steam laundry, hence the restaurant’s name. The @_tfl_ is open for dinner daily from 4:00 pm to 8:15 pm. Two prix-fixe nine-course menus - Chef’s tasting and Tasting of Vegetables for $350 per person. My meal starts with three amuse-bouches: a crisp smoked salmon tartare cornet coated in everything seasoning paired with a glass of 🍾, 🧀 crackers and Hen 🥚 custard with a Ragout of Périgord Truffle. The French cuisine are made with California produce sourced carefully by @chefthomaskeller , including from his own culinary garden. My favorite dish of the night was their classic “Oysters & Pearls.” This dish combines 'sabayon' of pearl tapioca with @islandcreekoysters and @regiisova white sturgeon caviar. The rich and buttery sabayon sauce worked harmoniously with the buttery 🦪and the smooth and nutty flavor of the caviar. The flavors resonated in multiple stages. There were also two supplemental dishes on the menu, and we picked the black truffle and ricotta “agnolotti.” This dish combines 🧀 rind “consommé” and shaved Australian Black Winter truffles. The impeccable cream sauce topped with shaved aromatic black truffles was seriously heavenly. For the rest of the items on the menu, I posted in my story. Finally, a meal cannot be finished without a tour of the kitchen. @_tfl_ is the cradle of chefs. Without @chefthomaskeller , we would not have @nomacph , @alinearestaurant , @clee_benu nor @vespertine.la . This is a place definitely worth your visit. 🙇🏼‍♀️| #hangrydiarytravel 🍷 2005 Jacky Truchot Bourgogne Rouge 🇫🇷 @_tfl_ 📍 6640 Washington St, Yountville, CA 94599 🍽 Tasting menu 8.8.2021 💲350 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My most recent is further proof. Three MICHELIN Starred @odetterestaurant is definitely going from strength to strength. When a few foodie friends and I used our “Tough Time Tickets” (we’d bought these during lockdown to support the restaurant) for dinner there last Saturday, we had our collective minds well and truly blown. Right @thechubbydoc, @shihuii and Z? 😄 I think I speak for us when I say that meal was one that had us gasping in awe at every turn. There was no letting up as one magnificence arrived after another. Suffice to say we spent the entire night in a wonderstruck state. But it was great fun as I was in the company of ardent lovers of food and wine. So for the record, here is all the food that we had the night of 21st August 2021: 1. Amuse bouche - All were exquisite but I was most infatuated with the tartlet filled to the brim with lightly cured and smoked Japanese Saba from Hokkaido and garlic aioli. 2. Mushroom Tea with Truffle - The aroma of this signature was intoxicating to say the least. While the cep mushroom sabayon rounded it off in richness, toasted walnuts added a welcome crunch. 3. Breads - Gorgeous but oh-so-dangerous! We approached with caution as we wanted to pace ourselves for what was to come but the one we couldn’t miss was the truffle-full buttery, flaky bake. 4. Marukyo Uni with Red Sicilian Prawn, Mussel Cloud and Kristal Caviar - This fresh seafood medley tasted as amazing as it looked. Silence reigned all around when we were tucking in. 5. Uni Toast - Served in tandem with the above, this had fresh uni heaped on a special handmade “pain de mie” that went through numerous steps to reach that desired level of crunchiness. Recommended to have this in one bite. 6. Normandy Brown Crab - Chef @adamwan shared more about this new dish - a meticulously balanced creation of sweet crab meat rolled in a translucent sheet of teriyaki jelly studded with muscat grapes, apple and avocado. Its delicate brightness had our eyes widened in wonder. 7. Bruno Cayron Tomatoes - Geranium oil was poured over the refreshing, sweet heirloom tomatoes served with olives and a crunchy garlic crouton. ⬇️Continued in Comments⬇️

--返屋企唔駛食生果2系列-- . . Finally here at COBO 🏠 house in K11 MUSEA! It’s always on my list for an experience of edible art but just didn’t have the time until now! I tried Devon’s and Ray’s dishes before back in test kitchen and I really liked it. For those who don’t know, the menus actually change around every six weeks. It’s already on 📗Chapter 5 of their duo showdown - POMOLOGY (and it’s about fruits! And it’s fruits AROUND THE WORLD). Opted for the 6-course this time, my favourite was the red yeast fermented pork jowl on the fried takana stick rice cake. Heard it pays tribute to the chef’s hometown. Love the flavour and the sticky texture with a hint of sweetness from the sugar apple. the second 🤩highlight was the coffee marinated lamb rack with the yuzu sabayon sauce. It’s cooked to perfection! I like how adventurous they are and use fruits like Sugar apple(“Sic Ga” lol), Mangosteen, Yellow Pitaya etc. It’s interesting and can’t wait to see what’s gonna be featured in the next chapter! BTW, they have interesting 🍾cocktails as well like the ☕️coffee based one and the one that looks like a yolk in the drink!
