the third course, Turbot with spaghetti squash, manderin orange and popped sorgham



Chef Patrick made a great dessert pulling some shape references from the work in the space. fromage blanc panna cotta with poached pears, "dark lord" reduction and muscavado ice cream.



the last 2 beers of the night, Popskull and Dark Lord (Gargantuan Russian Stout brewed with coffee, molasses, and honey). not sure how the photo got blurred but i think my head was feeling the same at the time so it works.
