Last night was Mexican food, tonight’s dinner was Vietnamese fusion at The Slanted Door, a restaurant, that has earned a spot in the Michelin guide. Not quite Michelin star but the mere inclusion in this century-old French-based guide is already something to be proud of.
Daikon Rice Cakes with shiitake mushrooms, shallots, sweet chili soy sauce
Simmered wild Alaskan halibut, wild mushrooms ginger broth, glass noodles, daikon turnip, with Jazmine rice
I can finish this whole plate by myself. Next time I come here, this would be my only dish.
Cellophane Noodles with wild gulf & Dungeness crab, green onion, sesame oil
Shaking Beef – cubed grass-fed filet, watercress, red onion, lime sauce
