The boy and I went out on Saturday and we chose Secco Wine Bar for dinner. We sat at the Bar as all the tables where taken and checked out the menu. We Started with a cheese plate with one cheese substituted with Jamon Iberico.
We chose one VA cheese, one VT. It is served with toasted bread some quince paste and some berry compote. We enjoyed it very much. We then selected 4 small plates which we both shared.
We ordered the octopus
Which came with some potato and ink. Delicious.
Duck confit with pasta
Also very good, but not as lively a taste as the other plates.
Flamenquines, which are fried rolls of pork
excellent with the crispy potato strings
and pork rillete
served with dehydrated apple crisps and mustard. (The boy referred to it as a jar of lard, but didn't stop him from voraciously eating his half)
For dessert whe shared the bread pudding and the chocolate ganache ribbon. Both excellent
On the way back home we stopped in at One Eyed Jacques and bought a set of Zombie Dice, which we played a couple of rounds before bedtime. Great dinner and entertainment.

Secco is divine. We can't get past the cheese and meat plates, but the rillettes look very good. Thanks for posting pics!
