Dinner Clubbin







This blog is mostly about artistic endeavors. When it comes to food the guys at Pizzeria Seven Twelve are artisans.


They have a monthly dinner club with four courses and the menu is a secret until you get there. Last night was my first time to experience it and it was exquisite.


The first course was peekytoe crab, butter lettuce, radish, avocado and cucumber salad.

The second course was pan roasted duck breast, melted leek risotto, braised swiss chard and cherry gastrique. The cheese course was a spanish blue cheese, house made walnut bread and honey gelee. The fourth course was vanilla poached figs with sweetened mascarpone on a shortcake biscuit.

Their regular menu recently featured Amano's white chocolate in a rice pudding that was luscious.
