Another year and yes another request for Steak and Lobster. Truth be told here in the provinces all that is required of a great meal is beef and better would be local beef and of course best is slow smoked local beef so here we go with a light Mexi… flavor as requested. Yes sir.
Starter is a cilantro roasted lobster, tossed in roasted onion viniagrette in a peeled lightly pickled tomato. This is served with a chilled spicy yellow tomato soup. Next time I will have to make a sorbet out of the soup and do some lobster ceviche instead.
Next the steak being lightly smoked was medium rear on top of ancho spiced duchesse potatoes, and get this, an avocado and morel mushroom souffle plus honey-chil1 glazed baby vegetables. A small pool of mole sauce sat under the meat. Not bad for steak.
My final stretch of mediocrity was the baked Mazatlan, I mean Alaska. A cinnamon sugar wafer topped with a mango flan, a scoop of pineapple ice cream all iglooed in almond meringue, then set on fire. No way, we still have big hair in Texas so toned with a brule torch is what it is.
Throw in a fancied Dining Hall and 138 Cadets in Uniform as servers, these 580 great Aggies had thenselves a real Ball.
