10 Jan 2014: Dinner at Amuse-Bouche, Hong Kong. I highly recommend the clam chowder.....a lighter interpretation of this classic dish, with giant clams from New Zealand, and the chef added a bean curd parcel of leek and clam instead.....very yummy......I followed this the baked cod in a cellophane wrap, with fennel and pepper...and who can resist the signature dish of black truffle pasta.......indulgence in extreme!
1989 Charmes Chambertin, Denis Bachelet: (We had a corked bottle in November and this is the second bottle from same batch.) Medium garnet. Funky barnyard nose, redolent of hay, herbal, cinnamon, mud, rusty nail, with notes of coffee and fig. Just a whiff of volatility. Medium-bodied, an elegant expression, with depth and character. Long finish. 17.5/20
