Back in the Kitchen

Yes, it is true, after a short absence, I am back in the kitchen creating a multi-course meal for the first time in weeks. I prepared the following meal as a THANK YOU for all the help Frank has provided during my surgeries and recoveries. 

Amuse-bouche: Tomato Bruschetta (a la Jose Andres)

First Course: Shrimp Ravioli en Brodo with Fried Scallions (an original creation that came out great)

Entree: Pan Seared Sea Scallops with Tarragon Beurre Blanc

Risotto Milanese

Matchstick Zucchini with Garlic and Grape Tomatoes (My new Oxo Mandoline worked great)

Dessert: Lemon Panna Cotta

Wine: St. Supery Dollarhide Sauvignon Blanc

All in all, a nice meal, if I do say so myself.
