What did you have for dinner?

[Ron Evers]

Last night I had dinner at Marché here at Eugene's 5th Street Public Market.

Before dinner I had a Pernod Anise Verte (made with wormwood, which gives the Pernod a green color) for an aperitif.

I had the Hazelnut bites and soup of the day.
With my entree, Pan-Seared Ling Cod w/black garlic vinaigrette, morels, sourdough purée, radishes, spring peas and pea shoots, I had a mediocre, local, Sass Winery Chardonnay. I had the Sorbet Duo for desert.
After dinner I had a Courvoisier V.S.O.P. Cognac.

Marché was a biased choice - my nephew is the Pastry Chef at Marché. We sat at the Chef's Table, watched the staff make all the meals, and got to taste some of the sauces, cheeses, etc for other meals.

Sounds great to me, BUT, I got you beat tonight. I had (Jeannes away) frozen fish & chips and finished with some Raynal VSOP brandy.

Not really, just beer, the brandy is still sitting on the bar.

Now having second thoughts.
