Laughing Bird Shrimp: White balsamic, lemon thyme, melons, Serrano ham.
Crispy Sweetbreads: Ancho, smoked agave, zucchini, jalapeno. (tasting menu portion)
Housemade Cavatelli: Lamb bacon, fava beans, mint, parmesean. (tasting menu portion)
The remaining courses in the Tasting Menu were: the Kindai Kanpachi Sashimi with a yogurt sauce; Hanger Steak with roasted potatoes, a Cheese plate, and the "kit kat" dessert, with gianduja, hazelnut, 'crunch', and milk chocolate. The other entree dish was the Veal Chop, with a basil ravioli filled with mascarpone and ricotta salata, and sun-dried tomato.
Overall an enjoyable dinner with lots of flavor and thoughtful presentation. The pacing was a little slow at times, but the dining room was packed so it wasn't too surprising. I will say though that Michel Richard's kit kat is MUCH better than the elements' version, haha.
Cavatelli looks delish! I want to see the Kit Kat though!
