mussels were horrible.
Just steamed them in a white wine garlic (a little shallot) and bleh.
faux au vin was excellent.
ready for some flaming crepes...
substituted grand marinier with cointreau. my orange butter on the right.
don't have a crepe pan, but.....I think I can make pretty **** good crepes (and I've had them from the best) in my silly little nonstick and a few cauloused fingers for flipping.
always takes me at least 3 before I get the feel.
so then I have a little wine....
do a little dance....
and get down...
then I melt the orange butter and drag the crepes through...
and bam...a little cognac and some cointreau, a scoop of vanilla, the 80's never looked so good.
and another....
not sure why my mussels sucked so bad, perhaps bad mussels. ah well, everything else was good.
Off to LA....see you guys in a week.
Oh yeah....wine picture....very good bottle BTW, and pretty dang cheap!
