Tomorrow is Mr Coco's 58th b'day. Since a lot of good places are closed Mondays, we ate out last night at the best restaurant in town and it was fabulous. I honestly can't remember having a better meal. Cocktail: satsuma mimosa; appetizer: pork belly on risotto; wine: Macon white; entree: pompano with greens and fingerling potatoes; dessert: chocolate, peanut butter, caramel cookie-tart (not the official name, but that's pretty much what it consisted of.) This place specializes in fresh local ingredients. It was a decadent diet-buster, but it didn't feel unhealthy, like eating at Cheesecake Factory might've. And the portions were reasonable. One thing I noticed was that it was prepared with a little more salt than we do at home. But I read that lots of salt and butter are the restaurants' dirty little secret to flavorful food.
Back to reality today. We can eat fresh local stuff at home too.
