Les Nomades Chicago
Tasted Tuesday, April 12, 2016 by KenK with 451 views
A special night where the food and wines all showed their best with a truly wonderful group of people in a special setting. A very small dinner hosted by a well known NYC auction house with some heavy hitters. I was quite lucky to be in attendance. J, K, BB, SK, JR and me. Chef Roland was on top of his game too. Everyone brought a great bottle.
Sautéed Alaskan Halibut with truffled mousse, fregula, bok choy, water chestnut salad, foie gras broth and citrus foam
Jumbo French whire asparagus, Iberico ham, morels, truffle sauce
Roasted Rack of Lamb, freek wheat, Brussel, sprouts, white asparagus, timid pepper sauce
Rye crusted venison loin with kobocha squash puree, fresh morels, carrot, Swiss char, juniper sauce, apple espuma
Still I do not know how I got included with such an esteemed group, but man was it fun. A night to be remembered for a very long time!

Rich and mineral driven with dense firm white stony fruit. Balanced with nice ripeness and fine precision. Well made.
