I believe that balsamic vinegar was used to flavour them. the deocration on the plate was done with raspberry vinegarette - this is a really special dish. <BR/><BR/>Thanks Barbara - funny how when people get wind of a place, it really takes off, but until it gets its big break, it can be really quiet, even if it is superb.Cakelawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205068748520541380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904224777464805669.post-90967124811545251862008-04-02T17:46:00.000+11:002008-04-02T17:46:00.000+11:00I ate there years ago before it was really popular...I ate there years ago before it was really popular.
