Cima at Avon - Richard Sandoval

Cherry and I celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary at Richard Sandoval's Cima at Avon/Beaver Creek. Sandoval "reinterprets Latin cuisine, blending traditional Latino flavors with global ingredients...from as far away as Asia".


Lobster Causa - Maine Lobster / Red Bell Pepper / Yuzu-Siracha Aioli.....
The Lobster Causa reminded us of potato salad and was served cold.  It was delicious.  Cherry does not think she can reproduce it and the recipe is secret so we will have to come back for more.


Flatbread Oxtail - Quail Egg / Smoked Gouda / Caramelized Onion /  Tomato Aioli...
We had never experienced quail eggs. They taste just like chicken....eggs sunny side up


Berkshire Pork - Grilled Tenderloin / Carnitas / Squash Purée / Brussel Sprouts / Chipotle Almonds / Pickled Onion / Blood Orange Mojo / Veal Jus...
Cherry loved her entree.


Angus New York Strip & Maine Lobster - Potato Purée / Asparagus / Chipotle Hollandaise / Truffle Chimichurri...
Surf and turf for Jerry.

A bottle of Turley Juvenile Zinfandel complemented the meal. We toasted 36 great years and many more to follow!

No room for dessert but we finished off the night with a pour of Glenmorangie and a glass of wine by the roaring fire in the Westin lobby.
