_

Michael Palmer arranged this incredible Harlan tasting dinner in two parts. Not only did he procure the wines, but he organized with Piero Selvaggio our total takeover of the Cut lounge and a custom menu.
1A4A3164
1A4A3167
Classic Spago Tuna cones with that crispy/sweet shell.
1A4A3175
Wagyu beef rolls.
1A4A3177
Uni yuzu toast. The ingredients were great but I didn’t think the yuzu worked well with the rich uni.
1A4A3181
1A4A3152-Pano
For the second night (odd vintages) of our 2 part Harlan tasting we returned to Cut. This time they put us in the private room instead of the bar. Nice and quiet, but very bright and didn’t have quite the ambiance.
1A4A3151
Tonight’s menu was again a completely custom awesome menu by the very talented team at Cut.
1A4A3302
1A4A3307
1A4A3185
Comte Cheese Custard. Dungeness crab, red wine shallot chutney, black truffle.
1A4A3195
With the truffles. This was an awesome dish, rich, creamy, with a hint of red wine sweetness and surprisingly, for a crab dish, and excellent pairing with the big cabs.
1A4A3202
The Spago bread selection
1A4A3306
1A4A3308
1A4A3301
1A4A3208-Edit
Red Wine Poached Maine Lobster. Japanese potato, bacon lardons, beurre rouge. Again you wouldn’t think that lobster went with big cab, but between the bacon flavor and the rich red wine butter sauce it totally did.
1A4A3219
Wolfgang just straight up joined us for the dinner.
1A4A3297
1A4A3305
1A4A3298
1A4A3222
1A4A3232
Cauliflower Mushroom Risotto. 36 month aged parmigiano reggiano, red wine essence. An absolutely first class risotto, very creamy and cheesy, with a perfect mancurata.
1A4A3304
1A4A3300
1A4A3296
1A4A3236-Edit
Roasted Loan of Venison. Sautéed Brussel sprouts, red wine poached pears, cipollini onion jus. First of two red meats!
1A4A3303
1A4A3299
1A4A3247-Edit
Australian Wagyu New York. Cream of sunchoke, ricotta gnocchi, whole grain mustard jus. This one was even better.
1A4A3259
He brought out this incredible Italian cheese.
1A4A3265
Briacacio Cheese. Grilled fruit & nut bread, cream of shallot, market blackberry jam. Really just an awesome blu cheese. Like a super gorgonzola.
1A4A3289
My son’s favorite — Quad Chocolate Cloud Gelato – The base is made this time with Valrhona 70% Guanaja Chocolate and then layered with Dark Chocolate Cream Cheese Ganache, Nestle Buncha Crunch, and chopped Oreos! — made by me for @sweetmilkgelato — #SweetMilkGelato #gelato #dessert #icecream #FrozenDessert #nomnom #dessertlovers #dessertporn #icecreamlovers #gelatoitaliano #foodporn #gelatolover #food #foodgasm #foodblogger #dessertgasm #desserttime #foodphotography #gelatoartigianale #gelatomania #dessertlover #icecream #icecreamlovers #Valrhona #chocolate #oreos #ganache #icing #nestle #crunch

This was another incredible meal. Everything was perfect. Wines were interesting and the food was amazing. Company was the best of all. Thank you Michael and Pierro for organizing!
