The desert course from last night's  27th Anniversary dinner at  #ProvidenceLosAngeles...

Last of the  #winepairing  is sherry from #Spain #CesarFlorido #CruzdelMarCream

The dessert was a chocolate box that was incredible.

I don't normally drink sherry, so I enjoyed it. It had hints of nuttiness that was quite good to go with the chocolate.

The sixth course from last night's  27th Anniversary dinner at  #ProvidenceLosAngeles...

Providence is known for its seafood... but for the choice part of the tasting menu I opted for the duck so, nex on the  #winepairing  is a red Austrian wine... From #WeingutKolfolk #Blaufrankisch

The duck has smoked Apple, Napa cabbage and duck sausage in addition to the slices provided.

First time drinking Blaufrankish and it's light, but has body. In between Pinot Noir and Cab Sav

Celebrated our 27th Anniversary last night at #ProvidenceLosAngeles...

I enjoyed the #winepairing while my wife was designated driver...

So, I'll take you through part of our dinner.

We started with #Hirai #Junmai #Sake to pair with the first dish #caviar and macadamia dish... It was nice to skip bubbles to start and have a crisp rice sake.
