Morimoto

Took Shannon to Morimoto for a valentines day dinner last night. I must say the Iron Chef treated us to an 8 course feast that was beyond anything we could have imagined. I will list the courses in order. First round was Toro Tartar, which was by far the best tasting dish I have ever had. It was cut so fine that it felt like velvet and melted on my tongue. Next up was Exotic Yellow Tail Sashimi Salad with Orchards, which was quite tasty. Scallops prepared in garlic and hot oil came out next that tasted fantastic. The forth course was hand made Wasabi Sorbet to cleanse the pallet. For the hot course he started with Halibut and a Black Bean Soy Reduction steamed inside a bamboo leaf, also excellent. Next up was a huge hunk of Kobe Beef which was even better than I could have imagined. A tray of Sushi came out next and for dessert we had a Yam Cake. EVERYTHING was out of this world good. I will probally never have a better meal.
Tonight I picked up William Gibsons new Novel, Pattern Recognition, in hard cover, which cost a pretty penny I found out. But the price is justified for his work. I also caught DareDevil in the theaters which was much better than I was expecting. After the crap the was Spiderman I had little hope, but I was pleasently surprised. I also got in on the X-Men 1.5 DVD deal which came with a free movie pass to see DD.
