Food Porn - L’aile ou la cuisse

The motto of yesterday's evening of culinary delights was "L’aile ou la cuisse", so named after a famous French movie starring Louis de Funes (international title "The Wing and the Thigh").
So the topic was clear - French Cuisine.

We started off with a little snack made out of a slice of potato, a piece of foie gras and a tiny bit of caviar...

Appetizer: Potato Canapes

For the Soup, we chose the French classic - Onion Soup au gratin with cheese. Simple, but very delicious.

Soup: Onion Soup

Another French classic made the selection for our entree - Ratatouille. A dish that brought a taste of summer to our kitchen.

Entree: Ratatouille

 

For our main course, we initially had decided for rabbit with mustard sauce, but in the grocery store we discovered they had no rabbit, so we redisposed and went for Coq au vin.

Main Course: Coq au vin

After the main course, we finished off the dinner with a classic french cheese platter.

And for our dessert, we found the last French food cliché: Creme brulee.

Dessert: Crème brulée

I guess we can say we totally nailed that one. It was perfect.

Commissioned Work.

I am a regular at a bar/café (Link) near my workplace. I did take a couple of pictures there last year:

The photo above was instantly liked by a lot of people, so the owner of the bar asked me a couple of weeks ago if I would take some photos of special drinks they are serving in his place.

Here's the result:
