As a reward for helping with the kids, my wonderful SIL and DD took me to Menton's for dinner the night before I left. It was without a doubt the best restaurant meal I've ever had. I loved the place, the service was amazing and the food was way beyond my expectations. Amazingly, some of my favorites where preparations of foods I have always disliked. Lesson learned is not to dislike foods, dislike preparations. I chose to not have the wine pairings just a couple of wonderful whites, but my SIL did and most of the wines were amazing. I didn't get a copy of his wine list (he did), since I probably can't afford them anyway, but I particularly loved an Austrian Riesling (which normally I would not appreciate) and a lovely Boston Madeira. Apart from the actual quality of the food and the wines, I really enjoyed the different wine glasses, a different shape for each course. Now I wished I'd acted like a tourist and taken pictures of each course. Anyway I thought I'd share the menu.
