A little French bistro at L&O's

I celebrate my birthday with my friends up at Lydiah and Oskar's home in the Finger Lakes. Oskar, with his business partner Fred, is a vintner, and they produce the most wonderful, drinkable wine in the world, dry riesling.

This year, we had a cook-off against Tom Johnson of Milo Vineyard and his fabulous friends!

We served them:

Roasted peanut salad (served Indian street food-style in newspaper cones)
Zucchini carpaccio with champagne grapes and feta
Chopped salad
Mushroom anticuchos over wasabi-chive cauliflower mash
Watermelon-lime popsicle palate cleansers
Beef rendang and uppama
Sweet corn gelato with blueberry-elderflower coulis and oatmeal cookies

And cases and cases of '09 dry Wiemer riesling!
