DECOUVERTE MENU  |  OCTOBER 2010

The menu lists that evening’s featured ingredients, such as asparagus, vermouth, liquid nitrogen, and pineapple, but holds no clue as to how they will be presented in dishes. You can expect a variety of small plates and interesting food chemistry. It was an unexpected fun hot-and-cold experience.
