Thank you to my wonderful husband for surprising me with a dinner to Canlis for my 29th birthday. I can't even explain how wonderful of an experience it was.
We started with a before dinner drink. I had the lake union special (gin and lemon juice with a froth of red wine on top) which was amazing. We had a taste of the asparagus soup, shared a Canlis salad and chose an excellent Pinot Noir from California recommended by the Wine Director, Failla Occidental Ridge.
Our main courses were Copperhead Salmon and New York Steak (guess who chose which) and we shared sides of truffle fries and the most amazing twice baked potato on the planet.
Dessert was a trio of ice cream cones and a tropical creme brulee. Plus a glass of 20 year port.
Decadence at its finest. It was three hours of truly enjoying food and drink and each others company. Thank you hubby for one of the most memorable evenings in my life!
