The Weekend
I had the Backbone DIPA by Turning Wheels, the sisig upgraded to be with foie gras, and smoked oysters.
The beer was, as always, delicious. It brings me much joy knowing the one DIPA I find comparable to the best I had in SF is back in stock.
The sisig was good but, since I have had both excellent dinakdakan (pig’s ears with pig’s brain) and “homemade” sisig with pig’s brain in the past, I can’t say I am overwhelmed. But, that said, it was delicious, rich and a sweet mix of textures. Just remember to consume quickly as the foie gras can melt/shrink if you mix it into the hot oil for too long.
The winning dish was the oysters. First off, they cut off the adductor muscles. I love eating those, but find it a pain to get them off the shell myself as they are sometimes really stuck to it. Next, they heated the oyster only lightly and seasoned it richly. So it felt fresh and full of flavor at the same time. I drank the sauce or mixed them with the sisig as I consumed my food and paired it with great beer.
Service was excellent. Music was just right. Will bring friends with me next time.
