Pairings | Game dinner

A challenging game menu

Posted on December 5 2006 at 20:56

Q I am going to a dinner where we take our own wine. The starter is slices of smoked pheasant with partridge pate, followed by fillet of venison then a dessert of profiteroles with lemon cream + chocolate sauce. then a savoury of rabbit and tarragon terrine. You may now realise my problem! Any suggestions?

Last day in brilliant, colourful, warm-hearted Brazil. Have loved this place so much - the food, the music, the energy, the art, the amazing natural beauty. So much still to see. I’ll be back …❤️🧡💛💚 . . . #brazil #paraty #holiday #art #crafts #colour #luckyfishManaged to fit in another of Brazil’s iconic dishes, bobo, into the last full day of my trip thanks to my wonderful guide @jpparaty. This one, at @quiosquesaofrancisco, was shrimp-based, like many dishes on the coast and basically like a moqueca but thicker. Also addictive pasteis (shrimp again and hearts of palm) and the compulsory caipirinha. Despite the variations I still like the classic ones best. Oh when it rains in Brazil it POURS! But you do get a beautiful rainbow…. . . . #shrimp #prawns #seafood #bobodecamarao #pasteis #caipirinha #beachrestaurant #rainbow #paratyThe charming streets and churches of Paraty, a hugely atmospheric small colonial town on the coast between São Paulo and Rio. Grateful thanks to @getpickled.somerset for the recommendation. . . . #paraty #streetscenes #brazil #holidayApart from eating myself silly in São Paulo I managed to fit in visits to four museums and galleries including the Pinocoteca whose building is as beautiful as its brilliantly curated exhibits. Also the Afro museum, the museum of art (MASP) and the IMS (Instituto Moreira Salles). São Paulo is worth visiting for these alone. . . . #art #artgallery #museum #paintings #pinocoteca Follow on Instagram
