SLW May 16th
Silverlake Wine Tasting – May 16th!!!
Following what Howard Stern called “The Party of the Decade” Matt featured several menu items from that event for the Tasting on Sunday and, man, were they ever goooood!

Cherry Pie and Vanilla Ice Cream

Actually this deliciousness originated with the Aracuna Eggs, a seasonal egg from a special chicken.
It’s the shell that got me… the color of sea water but softer and of course cleaner. I had to have them, I didn’t care if they cost $8 a dozen. And I wasn’t about to share these delicate gems with Matt.

Strawberry Cake

And that’s Carrot Cake behind the bouquet because one cake is just not enough!
