And so it was...the last of the three part series of taste, texture, flavor and pleasure for a special guest whilst dining at noneother than; the Chef's Table! This was a culmination of fun & flavor, technique and taste, principle and passion, exploration and experience. I embarked on this journey of cooking as an inspiration of the season and a prelude into the game festival we were featuring. Hodge; being a lover of game and most things exciting and exotic, partook in this culinary adventure with a "no holds barred" attitude and said nothing more than "bring it on"! Here is what took place and how we rolled. Enjoy...
