In no particular order:
1. Uni Caviar Lobster roll at Petrossian
Chef Giselle Wellman has devised the ultimate lobster roll, topped with fresh uni and Petrossian caviar on a brioche roll. While the lobster roll and fries aren't cheap, each bite will assure you that it's worth it.
While they're a bit expensive for two lamb chops, I couldn't get enough of the tender lamb with that sweet gojuchang marinade!
4. Boiled fish in green peppercorn broth at Chengdu Taste
Being a food blogger I constantly try new restaurants and rarely go back to the same ones, but I've been to Chengdu Taste three times already, and each time I have to order this dish. The sweet, delicate fish is swimming in fiery green peppercorn broth that will numb your lips.
5. Suckling Pig Porchetta at Trattoria Neapolis
This was unfortunately only served at their anniversary party this past year, but this suckling pig porchetta may have been the best porchetta! I hope they'll put it on the regular menu.
6. Potato pulp at Trois Mec
Yes, it's potato pulp. I don't know what Chef Ludo Lefebvre does to his potatoes, but all his diners are head over heels in love with this potato pulp with brown butter and bonito.

So that boiled fish - I didn't get it my last trip to Chengdu, and it made my meal THAT much more bearable. I didn't even have to drink that much. Which proves that that dish IS HOT!
ReplyDeleteThat handkerchief pasta with almond basil pesto looks outrageously good!
ReplyDeleteI like that fish... seems so different food guide.
