NFA - NO FIXED ADDRESS - Secret Fine Dining

Well this was my second NFA dinner and it was just as good if not better then the first.  NFA?  what does that mean?  No Fixed Address - once set-up and arranged, no one knows the location of where they will be enjoying a night of fine dining with their own Personal Private Chef.  Notice is given to the Orgainizer 24 hrs prior to the event date, which builds up to the excitement and contributes to the overall NFA experience.

These NFA dinners have been around for awhile, our neighbours to the South in Seattle has been enjoying these types of fine dinning for many years now and has recently just started to explode in Vancouver.

The menu usually consist of six-courses and the guests are required to bring their own beverages if they want to drink anything other then water.  The Chef normally creates the menu, apparently it changes monthly, but substitue food can be discussed for those who are vegetarians or don't eat certain type of food.

Tonight's menu consisted of some really interesting flavour combinations and new ingredients to all our pallets, such as Eggplant Peas in our Slow Braised Green Curry Lamb Shank.

The mixture of courses was creatively designed and flavour combination made it a light yet filling experience.  Come hungry.....expect to leave full!

Here is a glimps of tonights menu in order of 1st to last course....

Spanish-Style Bouillabaise
Crab w/ White Gazpacho
Slow Braised Green Curry Lamb
Meyer Lemon Sorbet - Cleanse your pallet
Location TBA
Ahi Tuna in Coconut Lemongrass
Creme Brulee - Probably the best I've ever had! White Chocolate, vanilla & raspberry!
