Boulder, CO
1964 13th St
To celebrate ten years of being together, Suzanne and I went out to Boulder's finest, Black Cat. The tasting menu was recommended to us so we went for it. It claimed five courses but it turned out to be seven. We started with a cup of butternut squash soup with paprika oil. Second was a slice of goat cheese, that was more like brie than the standard soft goat cheese, with lavender honey, bitter greens and blood oranges. Third was a spanish dish similar to shrimp ceviche, except that it was marinaded in vinegar instead of citrus juice. I can't remember the details of the next three dishes but I do recall that they involved duck, lamb and polenta. Last was an apple crumb tart with cinnamon ice cream. I should have written this entry right after going so I could gush over every detail. I will summarize by saying it was probably the best meal I've ever had. It was also the most expensive meal I've ever had, but it was totally worth it.
