Scallop & Caviar
4.0
at Festiva
-Samseong, Gangnam, Seoul, Republic of Korea-
with W, and the owner
Met up with our Cheongdam neighbor again at his restaurant to discuss mutual interests (see most recently 13.198 Amuse Bouche (Deep-Fried Gnocchi)), including who will be responsible for erecting the fence between our respective properties in Cheongdam. After treating us to a sumptuous lunch, he faced little resistance to his gentle suggestion that we take care of it.
The scallop & caviar appetizer was sublime. The scallops were perfectly seared, perfectly seasoned, paired perfectly with a perfectly creamy mashed potato. The caviar didn’t really contribute much, just small bursts of brininess. I could eat this every day and twice on Sundays.
