“…Everyone had a marvelous time. We especially want to thank the Chef and Mark McNatt for the wonderful dinner choices and preparation. All four courses were excellent, and the wine pairings were perfect.
We started with a savory mushroom bruschetta, paired with a pinot noir. A delicious apple salad poached in white port with goat cheese and a walnut vinaigrette followed, paired with a chardonnay - everyone raved about the salad.
The main course was a huge redfish nested on linguine with a tangy riced vegetable relish, paired with a sauvignon blanc. The redfish was the best we had ever had – we all agreed on that and five of us have grown up eating fish since we were little (two on the Canadian east coast, one in La Rochelle, France, and two here in southcentral Texas).
The dark chocolate cake for dessert, paired with a cabernet, was amazing. I think the right word to describe the deep chocolate flavor of the cake was “umami” – truly delicious.
Thank you again for a wonderful dinner and evening, Lorraine.”
