For the last night of vacation, Debbie and I went to a new local place named Dancing Marlin that specializes in small dishes ala tapas. Here was our lineup:

 

Whitefish escabeche with cucumber vinaigrette, mint and red onion.

And for closers, brioche donuts with salted caramel sauce and whipped coffee cream.

Along with all of this we had several house cocktails including a very nice Scofflaw. 

 

Back to work tomorrow but screw them, we had a great shared meal tonight.

Looks great, except for that one pic of a dirty plate.  Really?  You went ahead and posted that?  Aye keed, aye keed...looks like a real foody place with a real eye towards presentation.  My only complaint would have been the pizza -- everything else looked great.

 

And yes, double wowzers on the desert.

Sometimes spelled "Ka-Prao" and variations.  It's basically Thai basil -- in fact, most restaurants, when you order one or the other, you'll get the same thing.  But I've been to at least one restaurant that prepared them differently (mostly in the mincing of the chicken).

 

There's no bacon involved, so I wouldn't expect you to remember all that.
