Wine: Box Car Syrah 2004
We went to Schreiner's Sausage in Montrose and purchased some Smoked Ham Hocks. They were to be the basis for a classic Bistro dish, Petite Sale. It is made from lentils and smoked ham hocks. The lentils are cooked first with carrots, onion, and herbs. When cooked they are drained and placed back in the pot with the pork.
We had a first course of a great salad from the Zuni Cookbook: radicchio with croutons, hardboiled eggs and anchovy vinaigrette.
A new bakery had opened in Los Angeles: Bread Bar. We purchased several loaves and with this meal we had the cheese bread. It was exceptional! Very light and great taste.
From Bread Bar we had also purchased desert. By the time we got to the end of the meal we decided to put off the desert. We were just to full!
