Report: 2002 Food and Wine Festival

Japan

Golden Shrimp - $3.00
This was filling and good. The shrimp was on the bottom of the tempura like batter on top. The batter was like a patterned dome protecting the shrimp underneath.

Yasai Maki Shrimp - $2.75
For those who seem to think that all sushi is raw fish, I invite you rethink this thought and give this veggie sushi a try. There is nothing fishy about this at all. This was great sushi (something I definitely went back for) and it was a refreshing change to the other things offered at the booths. With or without wasabi, this is definitely worth trying.

Beef Tataki with Ponzu Sauce - $3.00
This cold dish was very good. The beef was nice and tender and combined with the ponzu sauce and onions made for a harmonious dish.

Other Offerings:
Ozeki Sake - $2.50
Gekkeikan Silver Sake - $3.00
Kirin Ichiban Lager - $2.25/$4.00

Morocco & Mediterranean

Beef Shish Kabob - $3.00
The beef was good and came with the veggie couscous. That was really good also. Lord Niekon tried couscous for the first time and really enjoyed it. A hearty, filling dish.

Lemon Chicken - $2.75
On a bed of saffron rice this chicken was succulent and moist. This was well worth having seconds of, a hearty, filling dish.

Other Offerings:
Hummus - $1.00
Vegetable Couscous - $2.00
Rene Barbier White - $2.00
Rene Barbier Red - $2.00
Ksar Blanc - $2.00
Amazir Rouge - $2.50
Casablanca - $4.00

France

Alscasian Onion Tart - $1.50
This was very good and delicious. Looked forward to having it again.

Burgundy Escargot on Melba Toast - $2.50
Lord Niekon said this was the first and last time that he would be eating escargot, which is sad because I love escargot. I think he just didn't know what to make of it. Escargot really doesn't have any flavor itself. From my experience, it's the sauce that gives the flavor, be it burgundy or butter. If you have never had escargot, this is a great way to try it.

Chicken Cog au Vin - $3.00
This was a very filling dish and magnificent. Surrounded by mashed potatoes, the chicken was extremely moist and tender and the sauce was full of flavor.

Other Offerings:
George Duboeuf Beaujolais Villages - $2.50
Spar Alsace One - $3.00
George Duboeuf Prestige Chardonnay - $2.75
George Duboeuf Prestige Cabernet Sauvignon - $2.75
St. Amand French Country Ale - $4.50
