Roselyn, I would never have doubted a recommendation by you, being the “gourmet traveller.” Thank you to you and your Mom, Tita Trillo for arranging a great dinner for us. We enjoyed celebrating our special day at your restaurant. The last time we were at La Vigne was when our good friends Suharto and Rina invited us over around two years ago with a group of 30 people.
Our special table……………………..
The Menu…………..
Our dinner………….
I highly recommend this dish. Pied De Cochon ( Crisp boned leg of pork with duck liver, red cabbage, barley salad and sweet balsamic ) which Roselyn recommended as well. The foie gras went so well with the pork. I wish i could order the foie gras starter as a side dish tot his so it could go with the whole 3 pieces of pork. But that would really be sinful!
This dish reminds me of a dish i had in Gothenburg which I featured in my past blog on Foie Gras. It was the Panfried Duck Liver with Lightly Salted, Crisp Fried Knuckle of Pork, Truffle jus served with Sweet and Sour Summer Cabbage in Sjomagasinet by Chef Leif Mannerstrom – Gothenburg, Sweden
James ordered the steak of course, the Steak Frites ( Prime rib eye ):
They also have a Bar Chow menu if you just want to hang out in the bar and enjoy the wine and have some pica pica………………….
They have a private room which fits around 12 people. I was not able to take photos as it was occupied at the time we were there. And you can have corporate events, it would be a perfect venue.
