Last Week husband and I received the most incredible Valentine in the mail from our friends at Gourmet Galley Catering. It was truly one of the nicest gifts we have ever received! An offer to drop in with an intimate, four course dinner for two, hand delivered by Anna Lathrop herself. It seriously doesn't get much better than that!

The menu was carefully crafted and a pure culinary experience from start to finish. We began with artisan cheeses and fresh fruit that we paired with Pink Prosecco, moved on to Lobster bisque and Cream of asparagus soup (sans garlic and specially prepared for me), next we enjoyed a Salad of mixed greens with a delightful vinaigrette dressing and crusty bread with melted sweet butter, the Entree was Braised short ribs for Adam and Cedar plank salmon for me, with the most delicious plum sauce, they both melted in our mouths. For dessert we ended the evening with truly the most sinful, decadent, chocolate cake we have ever tasted, accompanied with fresh berries and whipped cream. It is a night we will always hold close to our hearts and a memory we will cherish for years to come!
Thank you to the team at Gourmet Galley for making our Valentines Day so very extra special!
