Caviar, Truffle, Fonduta, Leek Soup
Second dinner with Trisha. Second round on the caviar. Trisha made fonduta (Italian version of fondue) and a potato leek soup with a poached egg (my contribution). Lots of truffle and we still have more than 100g left. Wine was a 2013 Barolo. Very tasty and satisfying meal. Thank you Trisha!
