New Year's Eve is always special as it's Hank's birthday eve too. This year we brought in the new year with dinner at Poole's Diner amongst friends. It was quite sparkly and delicious.
Here's the sparkly...
Here's the delicious...
Jumbo lump NC crab with fines herbes and avocado-buttermilk panna cotta
Cauliflower velouté with pecan butter and caramelized shallots
Brown-butter scallops with sherry-creamed Brussels sprouts and charred red onion confit
Warm pumpkin donuts with roasted white chocolate and nutmeg
Peace, 2012.
And Happy Birthday, Hank!
May this seriously be your best year yet.
