We got the 7 course tasting menu and added the (ridiculously overkill) 7 round wine pairing to go with.  Is 7 glasses of wine too much for one meal?  Maybe, maybe not… but adding a scotch on at the end is just acting silly.

So.  How does one go 2,000 calories over their daily average you ask?  Well allow me to demonstrate…

Course 1.  Tomato bisque and creme of aspargus yin/yang soup with lump crabmeat.

Course 2: Broiled curry sea scallop with parsnip reduction and an aioli of some subtlety…

Course 3: Roast boar rib with redfish

Course 4: Venison, goat cheese and green lentils in a light curry demi-glaze.

Course 5: Chilean Sea Bass over grits with stuff on it (fuck you, i was drunk by now)

Course 6: Smoked salmon atop beef ossobuco alongside andouille sausage with shit drizzled places.

Course 7: Fucking dessert

At the end of the meal, i decided I wanted to have a whisky along with my coffee (probably because I was too drunk to conceive of or execute any plan more damaging.)  Since they don’t have an actual liquor license, they couldn’t sell me one.  Luckily, someone accidentally dropped a glass of 15 year MaCallan on my table.

The next morning, I was feeling a touch under the weather.  My head hurt, I felt lethargic, and I had about as much motivation as a deceased marmot.  So, i decided to fight fire with fire… if debauchery got me into this mess, it could certainly get me out.

Course 8: Mexican omelet  from the Austin Diner on Burnett:

But the best part.  I’m still in first place, bitches.
