The night began with several appetizers including roasted pobiano and garlic hummus with pita bread for dipping, crispy calamari topped with fresh made pico de gallo over a bed of arugula and a side of spicy aioli, breaded and deep fried short rib balls served with a creamy horseradish sauce and extra gravy, and a mozzarella and tomato salad over pistachio pesto drizzled with a balsamic reduction. Immediately following appetizers, we indulged in a fluffy gnocchi covered in a light creamy pesto topped with blackened chicken bursting with spicy flavor, the most tender and perfectly cooked red wine braised short rib, which I literally cut with a fork, served atop bow tie macaroni and cheese with chopped grilled asparagus, and finishing with a sweet and tangy teriyaki salmon over velvety vegetable risotto.
