Sometimes there are not
enough words to explain an experience. So I turn to gifs. For food pictures
keep scrolling.
This was me, trying to play it cool when I made
a dinner reservation at The Test Kitchen. Back in March. That’s right. Two
months ago.
Then every day since then when I started to
think about it.
On the day.
When the dishes got served.
After every first bite.
When a friend wanted more than one taste.
When I had dessert order envy.
When I realised it was the last course.
Any other restaurant experience from now on.
Now for the actual food:
Grilled scallop, asparagus, tofu miso suke, braised
scallop dressing, miso on toast,
braised shitake, raw shitake
Lightly smoked beef fillet, gorgonzola catalan, fresh
