Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Took Becky for the mean of a lifetime for her birthday at Victoria and Albert's. It was amazing, that is the only way I can really describe it. And, yes, I took photos of nearly all of the food. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 We added the wine pairings with each course, well worth it, then were good pours and sometimes they even topped them off. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Becky switched one of her courses for one off the vegetarian menu, a mushroom medley, which she enjoyed immensely. I do not recall the actual name of this dish, but if you like mushrooms (I do not) this is the dish for you. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 My main course, Roaster Duck with Fennel and Leeks, "A l'Orange" BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 A half portion of the True Japanese Kobe Beef that we shared. Truly amazing, the beef is almost buttery and just melts in your mouth. This is one of the few places in the nation where you can get real Kobe beef.

Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Time for coffee, this is a Reverse Vacuum Coffee Maker, very neat to watch. I would love to have one of these for special occasions. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 The dessert before the dessert, Roasted White Chocolate Gelato with Candied Fig. I think the fig is the only thing all night that I really did not care for. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cyclonic 55 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Wow! Yeah, that pretty much describes it. Maybe way down the road we will go back and do it again, maybe at the chefs table, but so glad we did it once. It was Becky's first time to Disney, and in the two weeks we were there, this was the highlight of the trip for her. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Up to this point, it doesn't look like you've had very much food. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 I would probably make them roll their eyes when I show up and order a diet coke lol.Food looks really pretty. I would like to try it there someday but Brian would never go for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 That looks A-Mazing! Thanks a bunch for sharing the photos and your experience. This is definitely on my list for someday. Now I just have to convince DH that someday is soon. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Specularius 102 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 This place is without a doubt the best place I have ever had a meal. Shardi and I celebrated our 15th anniversary there. The first time that I was greeted at the door by name before introducing myself and the wait staff was always asking us by name what we needed. We will be dining there again Thursday of next week for Shardi's 39th Birthday, although it will be a few days late. Kelly, you and Jason have to get there someday. Anyone that loves a BGE, will love the food at V&A. Cyclonic 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
