  1. I believe it was a puree based on heart of palm. In fact, the recipe was posted on the WETA web site last week. Check it out at http://www.weta.org/dcdining/2007/01/03/se...scallops-ceiba/
  2. I was in there on Tuesday and it still wasn't hooked up. They told me it would be two more weeks. (Of course I heard two weeks a couple of months ago...)
  3. Try going to the Chrysalis website (http://www.chrysaliswine.com/begin.htm) and clicking on Events on the left hand side. It has the price and contact information. At $100 it's not cheap, but some of the menu items sound pretty tasty so it may be worth the money. Especially since it includes the wine pairings.
  4. I've been meaning to hit up Cafe Panache but haven't gotten around to it. (Too many new Ashburn restaurants and too little time.) The Post article settles it. I want to try it now. Except that after this it will be too crowded. What to do, what to do....
  5. Had dinner at Citronelle Saturday night. Because of the quantity of wine that was poured and drank (drunk?) a complete and accurate description will be impossible. I will say that the food was very good, as it should be for the price paid. The service was also top notch. No real complaints about food or service. Of the food that I remember clearly was an excellent mushroom soup with a cheese souffle in the bowl. The soup was absolutely wonderful although I did find the souffle just a bit too mild for my taste. A squab course was also served which we found delicious. How do you get a steak from a squab anyway? (I did miss not being able to try the duck served medium rare, but that gives us an excuse to come back again soon.) They also had a mini lobster burger on the tasting menu. It was very good. Everything that I had heard that it was. I asked our server if we could meet Mark if he was available. He and his assistant (I believe he was his assistant, sorry I don't recall his name, too much of their product I guess) stopped by after the meal and chatted for a while. Because of vast amount of wine that I had just consumed I probably babbled incoherently most of the time. Mark did a good job pretending to understand what I was talking about. He even arranged for us to have a quick tour of the kitchen. Thanks again Mark.
