Argintinian dinner at Ripe Bacalao stuffed poblano pepper with corn broth Grilled hearts of lamb, watercress, dried mango, and toasted almonds with a sherry vinaigrette Matambre - rolled painted hills flank steak stuffed with black kale, hard cooked egg, onion, and oregano New potatoes Tres leche Wines: Don miguel gascou 2001 malbec mendoza argantina bodega jacgres + francois lurten 2002 mendoza valle de uco pinot gris layunta torrontes 2001 famaatina valley la rioja - argentina The Bacalao stuffed pepper and corn broth soup was amazing. So was the flank steak. The salad was great. But the lamb heart was so finely sliced, tender that it was practically un-noticable. I guess subtle is the word. I could take it or leave it. The dried mango and almonds were my fave touch. I loved the wines, the dessert was nice too. All is served family style so second and third helpings on wine and food (not dessert) if you want. Special dinner that night so price was double the usual: $40 plus tip. I love this place. |
