Fortunately, instead of being struck away, Cellar Door opened up
their home and once again cooked up an amazing array of dishes for a wonderful
night of great food and wonderful conversations.
That's the thing
with good eats, often times you don't just go back for seconds, but you end up
scooping up thirds, fourths and more.
I'm getting better
at not relying on the convenience of my phone’s camera and actually using my
SLR for the blog. Now if only my editing process can keep up with the
shooting >.<
One of my favorite things about eating with Cellar Door, is that
they create this welcoming and beautiful eating experience without the
pretention and snootiness that often gets correlated with eating good
food.
I’ve mentioned before that even though you get seated at a table
with strangers, it’s like you’re having dinner with friends.
The theme from this evening was “Best of Cellar Door” and my
favorite dishes included the Okonomiyaki, fried chicken and Salmon collar. What I
also love is how open Chef Logan is about how she made the dishes, how we can
re-create it and where she got the ingredients from.
My new love that evening was the black coffee served with
dessert.
I’m still working on my Chicago photo diary, but wanted to
share a closer look at the Cellar Door dining experience.
