joel (yes, again - we decided to go once a month)
appetizer: terrine of eggplant, tomato confit, organic goat cheese
main course: new york strip with some sauce - tasted a lot like korean bbq actually, but still freaking good
dessert: chocolate tart w/ milk caramel ice cream
what aileen had:
appetizer: tuna tartar, avocado sorbet, daikon radish
main course: baked john dory, butternut-curry gnocchi, thai mushroom broth
dessert: some raspberry dessert... ahh, can't remember the name!
wine:
sommelier recommended another bottle for us since they ran out of '97 marcelina. it was very very good - '94 mondavi, cabernet sauvignon, half bottle
we have a regular waiter now - and he is awesome. he hooked us up with some pre-dinner champagne (which made aileen really buzzed) and even brought aileen some extra avacado ice cream. if you ever go to joel - ask for erik. that's erik - with a k.
