Perfect Sorbet

my life is complete

The scallop bisque was sweet yet assertive. The Yarra Valley Chardonnay balanced it perfectly. The Pinot Grigio was excellent, but perhaps a little underpowered for the kingfish on an asian salad. Other People started with a few delicious prawns, preceding battered barramundi on a nest of deep-fried potato segments. Do not, please, confuse this with fish and chips. Fish and chips comes with ketchup.

The sticky date and fig dessert was a major success in Certain Quarters. I had the trio of sorbets de jour.

The first was a pleasing confection of melon. Light, clean and pure. The middle one was cucumber. I am not, normally, partial to cucumber. However, this was lifted from cloying sweetness with a good dose of citrus juices.

Finally, chilli sorbet.

Chilli. Sorbet. Cold, icy, fiery, agonizing perfection.

I will die in a state of grace, for I have eaten Chilli Sorbet.
