Six of my classmates prepared a Mediterranean-themed buffet over six days. On Monday, the entire school came down to taste the food. My group---the Asian-Latino-themed buffet---will present in a few weeks. The buffet is a requirement of Level 4. (I passed my midterm and passed Level 3.)
Platters were filled with merguez, fois gras torchons with date cherry marsala jam, house-cured codfish croquetas, white almond gazpacho, duck confit empanadas, grilled baby octopus and so much more. Seafood paella, barbecued Moroccan braised lamb shanks, sherry-braised short ribs and chicken in an almond sauce were served.
To see all the photos, go to my Flickr page.
A few highlights...
I loved the seafood paella.
I slurped all of my Moroccan rice pudding.
The calamari stuffed with couscous was wonderfully sweet inside.
The lamb shanks were so tender.
I really liked the foie gras torchons with date cherry marsala jam. The torchons look like peanut butter and jelly bites, only they're so much more decadent.
The salt-cured striped sea bass was impressive.
The duck confit empanadas and the churros were all gone by the time I passed by them.
What an incredible job! Congrats, guys!
