We got lucky this weekend. C's mom came down to be with H while he was working in Encinitas, and we had two get-together's with them and also P & R who came in from Temecula.
We actually planned to have them over, but when there was 6 of us, they decided rather to go out for dinner. On Friday we drove up to an Italian restaurant in Carlsbad. I had a Salade Caprese and a big steak of Seared Tuna with Jumbo Shrimp rolled up in Prosciutto. C got a halibut and his mom salmon, as usual, H got clams, R got a steak and P some sort of salad, I think. I shared a Creme Brulee with my husband afterwards, but we agreed that it wasn't half as good as the one H makes (and which I never tried). It was kind of heavy and grainy. Well, maybe that's the italian style. But I think H will now feel compelled to make us his recipe next time we go up to the ranch ...
Saturday we went to good old Fishery. They never fail! This time I got the Pan Fried Halibut with Stewed Tomatoes, Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus. We shared a platter of starters: Oysters, Eel and Tuna Sushi Roll, Jumbo Crab Cake and Goat Cheese on Grilled Bread with Strawberries and Cheddar. Warm Strawberries with Balsamic Vinegar on Vanilla Ice-cream for dessert!
