Mmmm mmmm good

Last night we had a special treat: Christmas dinner at what is probably our favorite local restaurant, Säge in Flüh. In addition to having exceptional food, it's a really cozy, comfortable place with friendly owners and staff (not always a sure thing here). We had the special Christmas menu that included an amuse-bouche of cream of pumpkin soup with red curry and hazelnut bread, a starter of langoustine and sole with risotto and mandarin oranges, a main course of veal with fresh vegetables and rosemary potatoes, then a surprise from the kitchen of crème Catalan. We were supposed to have a dessert of honey parfait with warm fruit, but at that point we were all ready to explode so we declined. Combine the great food with the good wine (for me) and warm atmosphere and it was a Christmas night to remember.
