Unfortunately the photo does not do this justice...
After a palate cleanser of grapefruit ice, at least I think I remember that correctly, we were on to the meat course.
The third course was also delicious, so delicious we finished our course and I forgot to take a photo!
Next was a Smoked Ham Hock, Roasted Tomato and Roasted Fennel Risotto with caramelized vegetable compote. It was paired with an '03 Noceto Sangiovese, Shenandoah Valley.
We went to Juniper for our third wine tasting event, the first at the new restaurant... I really enjoyed the larger space. My partner did not enjoy the fact that he couldn't see over the wall of the booth to the other side of the restaurant (I couldn't see either, but it didn't bother me as much). We could see that this would make it easier for the restaurant to host larger groups and still be able to have half of the restaurant open for regular business.
