Dinner Tuesday: Couscous, potato and crab 'tikki' with cucumber relish - Tasty, and not greasy, but not much crab Shiitake, sun-dried tomato and goat cheese samosa with mint & cilantro sauce / tamarind coulis - more outside than inside, but lovely effect of swirled sauces Seafood biryani with house raita - right on. Terrific rice. Plentiful mixed seafood. Mussels in coconut broth, lemon grass and asian spices - really plump and juicy mussels, not overcooked. Very lemon grassy. A lovely Navarro Correas Pinot Noir. Wed Feb 16 09:54:09 -0800 2000 0 Liza
