Higado de Pato- Seared foie gras with Point Reyes bleu cheese and blackberry-port reduction

Oh, my god. Okay. That's, uh, my favorite blue cheese and....then with foie gras.....and....well....I'll be there.

Is the new menu in effect tonight?

I will be there this weekend for this new goodness! Oh yum, yum, yum.

The new menu started last nite and the feedback was amazing. In fact Marsha, Clay and Steph were in last nite and they both had new items. Both you Ladies say hello when your in.

We went tonight! Wow, the new menu is amazing. It literally took me twenty minutes to decide which new dishes I wanted to try. It's rare that I see a menu that I want to try one of each. Thanks for a fantastic dinner. Our server, whom I can't remember her name, was also delightful. The bartender tonight made the meanest dirty Stoli martini in town. All around fantastic.

John & I were lucky enough to go to Seviche this past Friday night. Anthony happened to be at the door when we were arrived, so we said hello - lucky for us; he sent a fantastic sweetbreads appetizer to the table to go along with the beef seviche and the NEW foie gras appetizer with Pt. Reyes and blackberry reduction/fresh blackberries. Oh, man, you'd think it'd be easy to have too high of expectations for that dish, but it blew expectations away. Somebody back in Seviche's kitchen knows how to cook foie gras to perfection, with a nice sear but not overdone. Imagine, sweetbreads, rare beef and foie gras before the first course was over with. Good lord, how spoiled am I gonna be now?

John had one of the specials described by our server (also John, second time we've had him - he's, well, perfect!): a Peruvian "Saltado". I've looked up "saltado" since, and it seems it translates to "meat and potatoes with some element of stir-fry". In this case the meat was a super-rare (per request) flat iron steak with a red pepper sauce (I remember "rojo", but can't remember the other sauce descriptor) and frites tossed with fried onions and peppers. Wow, wow, wow!

I had churrascos again. I dunno if I'm ever going to be able to order a different entree. That's four out of five times we've been to Seviche.

Anthony was crusin' the room, being a great host. I think Amy A and Sherrie G were both there at the same time we were.

With two cocktails and one BBC beer, all that goodness came to $101 before tax and tip. A bargain.

Don't walk - run! to check out the new menu at Seviche. You might need to run on your way home, too, just to burn off some calories *whew*

Thanks, Anthony, Madi (our great hostess) and John for another perfect meal!
