Birthday Dinner for Two

As a special surprise for Ryan's birthday I hired Personal Chef Eric Daniel 

to come over to our house and cook us dinner.

He was FABULOUS!!

We got to sit, relax, chat, drink wine, and ask him questions

while he cooked a fantastic meal. 

 

He was so personable it was like having an old friend there with us.

An old friend who just so happened to be an amazing chef.

 

Let me walk you through our dinner:

 

First Course:  

Quartet of tomatoes and radishes on a bed of spinach with balsamic vinaigrette

Second Course:

Crab tower with avocado and roasted bell peppers on an avocado cream sauce 

 Third Course:

Braised beef short rib with a red wine reduction sauce.

Served with cheesy polenta and braised kale. 

Fourth Course:

  Puff pastry filled with caramelized apples and fresh whipped cream

 I have one word....AMAZING!!

Everything was so delicious!!  The fact that it is not even 10:00 PM and 

Ryan is currently snoring like a freight train on the couch next to me, 

deep in a food coma, is a testament to how wonderful the food was.

Thanks for an unforgettable meal Chef Eric!!

Hopefully we'll be seeing you again soon!
