Very nice plating, chef. I've come to appreciate that aspect of the art lately.

If I might ask---did you hang/age the meat? If so, how and how long?

By the way, that plate looks absolutely scrumptious.

Craigepo, I did not hang, or age the venison. I dropped it yesterday this side of 1700; had it for dinner tonight. It was a wonderful dinner. The wine is a fine. if you locate some you will not be disppointed.
The KC bourbon was subpar compared to the 12 yo Elijah Criag we shared with agroup of friends Christmas Eve.

I like the vanilla touch. (I just made a gallon of vanilla, it should be ready in six months.)
