What's on the Menu for Today, Thursday, 1/6? - cjs - 01-06-2011
So, what's on everyone's menu for tonight? (I don't think we can top yesterday's menus, that's for sure!)
We are shopping in Mesa today, so will probably eat out - a couple of places sound interesting.
By the way, found a place in Scotsdale that I have my fingers crossed that we can get to before we leave (Sunday...

You give the chef ingredients and style of cooking – he develops a dinner for you.
Q. What is Improvisational Cuisine?
A. POSH serves a seasonal coursed menu, starting with 4 courses, up to as many as desired. How it works…we offer a list of main ingredients, requesting you to CROSS OFF which items you DISLIKE, then our creative chefs surprise you with the remaining selections. We have a spot at the bottom of the list to add additional dislikes or particular medical conditions (allergies). To begin your course, typically soup or a salad are your options. Each meal will always finish with an eclectic cheese course or one of our fabulous desserts.
Q. What is the dining Counter?
A. POSH offers 25 seats at our counter which is directly surrounding the kitchen (similar to a sushi bar). Sitting in these seats, you will get great views of the kitchen in action, and being that POSH is an interactive dining experience, it’s a great way to spend the evening.

doesn't this sound interesting? Has anyone ever gone to a restaurant like this?

What a cool place to eat! I would love to go there. You will have to take pics for those of us who must live vicariously through your travels.
We are having leftover Barley, Mushroom, Prime Rib soup. I can't wait. I bet it's even better the next time around.

I'll bet it will be, too, Laura!

Managed to get another ham bone from the holidays and put it in the freezer until I could use it. This time will be ham and split pea soup. It's a meal in itself, so probably just a salad and garlic toast to go with.
Oh, and I'm already thinking ahead thanks to all of you! Putting leftover soup in containers for future meals.

Now THAT sounds cool, Jean! It will be interesting to see just how creative they can be.

My daughter sent me some of her homemade pear & ginger jam for Christmas. I'm going to use it for a glaze on a pork loin roast - Garlic mashed and broccoli as sides.

Oh Jean that sounds so wonderful! What a great idea!
Years ago I used to love to go to PJ's Oyster Bed in the Haight Ashbury Dist. in San Francisco so that I could sit at the counter and watch the guys on the line cook - oh I could sit there all day and all night. Capellini Daniel!!! OMG Still one of my favorites.
We got some lovely meaty ribs, they're going on with some sauerkraut and onions. Cornbread and leftover slaw from last night.

What a fun place to go for dinner, Jean! I can't wait to hear more about it.
We're having patty melts and roasted broccolini.

Jean, that sounds like a lot of fun. Don't forget your camera. Can't wait to hear what the chefs make up for you. It will probably be spectacular and if you let them know that you are a chef, they will probably try to outdo each other to impress you.

WHAT A FUN PLACE! I would love to go to a restaurant like that some time! I can't wait to hear about your experience!
William had Kim's Spicy Chicken with Fried Rice and an Egg Roll for lunch, so he's requested a light dinner. So Cobb Salad it will be.
