Third
night in Charleston - and I have to say it takes a lot of willpower to
avoid eating so much at lunch that we don't want our dinner! We went to
FIG, which stands for Food is Good, and it was. Local, fresh,
delicious. Ordered this 2011 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir from Belle
Pente, lovely wine, tasted of blueberries, floral aroma, versatile with
our dinner choices.
SD had King Mackerel tartare with apple, frisee and chervil, dressed with a citrus vinaigrette
I
had a nine vegetable salad, which is a standard on their menu, and
changes with the season and the chef's whim. Dressed with caesar, and
parmesan, garnished with basil.
My entree was sauteed Triggerfish over Carolina rice grits, with broccoli puree and florets.
SD chose the ribeye, with polenta and a mushroom bordelaise.
We
HAD saved room for dessert, and for SD it was a flourless dark
chocolate and almond tart with a scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream
Mine was a take on the British sticky toffee pudding, with sorghum, and a scoop of calvados ice cream
