Yesterday I started a really tough assignment: to go to the Water Club (at the Borgata) in Atlantic City and eat (excuse me, dine) my way through all the top restaurants at the resort. Well. This wasn't quite as gluttonous as it sounds; I would be joining a group of food bloggers to meet the chefs and the resort's wine experts to sample each of the restaurant's offerings. And then, of course, there would be regular meals.
First the limousine ride to A.C.; though the vehicle was well-stocked with goodies, I limited myself to some pretzels washed down with water. And it's a good thing because dinner at the Homestead was a Roman style feast, accompanied by a medley of wines to satisfy even the fussiest oenophile.
The meal started with a trio of appetizers: a perfect crab cake made with jumbo lump crab--no fillers--sitting on the gentlest aioli; a morsel of sublime bacon in maple syrup that made me crave a crispy fried egg and breakfast; a Kobe slider enhanced with blue cheese. And all that was just the starter. More details and photos later.
