Dinner at the Modern
There are a couple of luxuries that I consider essential to keeping yourself sane. One is a good massage. The other is a really good meal. Tonight I partook of the meal. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth hosted a multi-course dinner prepared by their executive chief to celebrate the release of the second edition of The Texas Cowboy Kitchen cookbook.
The food was amazing and well worth the effort.
Appetizers
Sliders with goat cheese (I could have made a meal of these) Country fried oysters with cream pico sauce Bread and Butter Jalapenos (possibly the hottest thing I’ve ever eaten)
Starter
Smoky Caesar Salad with BBQ Quail
Entrée a combo plate of:
Beef Short Ribs Braised in Port Wine Catfish Cakes with Chipotle Remoulade (a Texas version of crab-cakes) Chile-Cheese Grits (not breakfast grits, more of a stuffing consistency) Green Bean-Chayote Casserole (very good but very cheesy and filling)
Dessert
Butterscotch Pie (not too butterscotch tasting, was very soft with pecans and real whipped cream)
