The Gentlemens Dinner has become one of the absolute high points of the year for me. A gang of old comrades from university get together to create one fabolous, over the top dinner. Focus is on the food but the wines of course play an important part as well. This years theme was seafood - lobster, crayfish, oysters, caviar, turbot etc.
One cannot cook well without wine...
Oysters naturale and poached with cucumber, beurre blanc and caviar
Razor-shell clam with grape and flower sallad
Crab claws ”jumbo” with mayonnaise
Arctic king-crab with pea puré, dill oil and dill foam
Toast SPS - baked marrow on brioche topped with caviar - the one dish that returns every year
Grilled crayfish with carrots, lardo and browned butter
Lobster soup with onion and apples
Fried scallops with browned soy butter and shitake
Poached turbot with white wine sauce, trout roe and caviar
Pike-perch Bourgignon with Jerusalem artichoke puré
Roquefort
Best dinner yet! Everyone really pulled out their very best kitchen skills and every course delivered. My personal favourite was poached oyster with cucumber, beurre blanc and caviar. Sublime!

A glass while cooking. Nice and fresh with peach, strawberry and raspberry. Fresh and zippy. Serious rosé
