I had the privilege last night of attending Soluna Grill’s Sunday Supper Club. Sunday Supper Club is a once monthly five course dinner pared with 4-5 wines.
Everything was amazing and I tried some new foods …. Sweet bread for one “Sweetbreads or ris are culinary names for the thymus (throat sweetbread) and the pancreas (heart or stomach sweetbread), especially of the calf (ris de veau) and lamb (ris d’agneau) (although beef and pork sweetbreads are also eaten).” Luckily I asked not to be told what part it was until after I ate it – and boy was it delicious!
We also met some great people. We found out a lot about Blackbird Wineshop and will definitely be hitting up Blackbird for their atomic truffles …YUM!
Check out the 5 courses we got to try:
Saturday Mornings
Wild leek “oeufs a la creme” with duck confit and sunchoke hash
What? Raw Fish!
Yellowtail carpaccio with yuzu gelee, sweet soy,
crispy shiso
It’s Not Sweet and it’s not Bread
Veal sweetbreads with celery root puree, savoy cabbage and Hungarian bacon
Sack Lunch
Kobe beef, smoked morels, crispy shallots, Roquefort and truffle spiked pocket bread
A.Y.S.O. and Mama Kay
Sacher torte with forgotten cookie
And as always, wines paired by Andy Diaz from Blackbird Wineshop
