SUNSET AND SATIATED

 I  thought this blended culture dining option might be something. BUT  my expectations were too

modest and too tame. Jeanne again captured the essence in the photos above. I love you still ,Henrietta, Red in Nashville ,...but I have a new love (Play Johnny Mathis and Conway Twitty as you read on).

The weather was right for outside dining and the sunset had barely started. The wait person,Zack knew 

what you wanted him to know. One of the chefs created the Dosa recipe and that won the blue ribbon for crepe crispiness. The braised tofu with asparagus was according to my spouse, who has vegetarian tenure,

 '.... the best Tofu I have ever had!" NB she is not prone in the way I am to hyperbole .

The leafy salad was luscious and the Chardonnay was Turkish.  Fish and chips had crunch and think steak like cod in a better batter than mankind has previously known. Rhubarb granite was enhanced with strawberries from  THE strawberry fields.  Thank you co-owners, JAY KUMAR AND JOHN KIM. Bless your dining gem.

Just 1o,000 steps from The Dream Hotel to a dreamy dinner in Germantown.  Featured is the gnocchi with fennel, parmesan and walnuts above. The photos by Jeanne will tell the story and reveal the white walls and elegant marble counters. While I ate the 3 kinds of oysters too  fast to show them and drank the Falanghina before the shutter clicked, the food and ambiance are revealed below. History can be found all around and the Bicentennial Park will in silvan surroundings tell you the story from the Ice Age to the Grand Ole Opry.
