Bread Furst
Kotobuki
Russian dinner
- an excursion to the french bakery, the Japanese kamameshi house, then to Russian Gourmet.
- the Russian pickled herrings have the texture of sashimi, just saltier. the deconstructed fur coat is fantastic
- pear sorbet mimics the grainy texture of fresh pear, flavor goes well with vanilla and candied almond
