Three weeks into my Michelin star trek and I wanted to give a quick update on the progress thusfar.
I started out with 24 restaurants to get through by the end of the year.
I think that I will have to change my goal a bit and let this run into 2009. Either that or someone will have to wheel my fat ass out of the last restaurant.
In the past three weeks I have taken 4 stars off the list.
Locanda Locatelli – amazing lunch, be sure to try the gnocci. They are like little fluffy potato clouds of goodness.
Rasoi – Tried the tasting menu with the wine selection. Great service, intimate dining and the food was wonderful.
La Trompette – You have have have to have the poulet noir and the chocolate caramel dessert. Yumtastic!
