Four of us went to the Chefs Table at Commanders last night to celebrate two birthdays. We were well attended to by our waiter Argyle and the always pleasent Chef Tory McPhail. We had 7:00 reservations and did not leave until 10:45. 10 courses, all incredible.
Just a small sampling of what we had
Three did the dinner with wine pairings, one had only red through the entire meal, wonder who that was :-)
The rootbeer float that came with the foie gras was delicious
The Hisbiscus Martini intermezzo was fantastic too
My favorite dish of the night was the BBQ Quail
The Seared Beef over Beef Tartar was also very good.
They brought out Chefs hats for us and eight desserts for 4 people. Autographed personalized menu's. What a night. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
Must have been one fantastic celebration. As I am a "foreigner", Yvette, which are you - white dress or black? In case I pass you some time in the future.
As John Wayne once said: "Life's tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid."

I am in the black dress. My friend Mary is the director of the Culinary School at Delgado CC.
I just asked my husband, cause I have no clue. Remember three had the wine pairings, which was $100.00pp in addition to the dinner. You have a choice of basic wine pairing, $100.00, $125.00 or $150.00 on the wine. The dinner was something like $125.00pp
With tax, tip wine pairings (and all my reds I ordered ) the bill came to right under $1000.00 for the four of us. Really worth the experience.
Oh, if you want to know that that thing on Chef Tory's head (no not the chef hat), he had just won the Seafood Cookoff, that was his crown.
