April 7, 2022: The rare culinary double-header!

With our friends Yael and Tanavi in town, Akemi and I joined Dr. Blackjack for a couple of meals.

First, lunch at Shook –

Stuffed smoked dates, mushroom kibbeh, wild mushroom couscous.  Not pictured: the best hummus in town.

Then, dinner at Antler –

The charcuterie board (the boar belly was sublime).  The Elk Tartare.  The duck hearts yakitori.

My cocktail.  The main ingredient = duck fat-washed whiskey!

The Game Burger (bison, venison, and wild boar)

Smoked chocolate mousse and maple cake.

Not surprisingly, I was NOT hungry for lunch today.
