TLDR: Another excellent takeout dinner from Providence with very generous portions. The three courses plated below are just half portions.
chilled celebrity tomato soup | scallop dumplings, compressed melon, celebrity tomato medley, basil, basil cream
it’s the perfect summer time chilled soup with alternate bites of tangy tomatoes and sweet melon countering the very savory soup. Also, here’s a special shout out for the steamed scallop/cream/egg white mousse. It’s got a very smooth and delicate texture not unlike silken tofu except that it’s bursting with classic bivalve sweetness.
parker house rolls
mine didn’t glisten like @PorkyBelly’s but texture’s quite soft even with a semi-dense structure.
lobsta sauce
emulsification of 1 part lobster roe, 4 part butter, lobster stock. it needs some swirling in my pan to keep the sauce from breaking but EZPZ reheating overall.
flavor? it’s incredibly rich and aromatic…perfect for bread and lobster to bathe in. just look at that glossy sauce!
maine lobster | peeky toe crab, mushroom, ritz crackers
tail and claw are meaty and snappy af. this course is basically an instant winner with the buttery lobsta sauce. i couldn’t bathe in the sauce but my lobster sure did!
of course i dunked this baby in the sauce…
here’s the nitpicking part: i can’t really taste the crab but this stuffing is damn tasty.
secret menu: stuff your bread with the peeky toe crab stuffing!
steamed potato & green beans almondine
mom says i need some greens every meal…
fruit cobbler | murray farms blackberry, andy’s orchard peach cobbler, tahitian vanilla whipped cream
- fruit forward
- low sugar
- no pectin added
- no scrapping of any kind needed
- totally forgot to add on the tahitian vanilla whipped cream but ate it straight up after. delish!
