Favorite aunty, “unique” cousins. Michel’s at the Colony Surf.
Amuse Bouche
Salmon, Okinawan sweet potato, spinach, and The Mouse forgot the rest. Tasty!
Escargot
One of the restaurant’s signature.
Kualoa Oysters
Yum!
Caesar Salad
With anchovies! 🙂
More anchovies
The Mouse always asks for extra, always accommodating. Fine dining service with a smile.
Lobster Bisque
Another signature, finished at the table with flambe lobster meat.
Michel’s Ocean Bounty
Lobster, scallop, oyster, blackened ahi, and forgot what else.
There was also a seafood en papilotte dish that The Mouse somehow didn’t get a picture of, still getting used to the new phone.
The flourless chocolate cake for dessert also did not make it into The Mouse’s phone. Sigh.
Hope they enjoyed themselves, always good to get together with family. 🙂
Enjoy. Eat well.

Back to Michel’s. Last time, with the group from Australia, The Cat and The Mouse could not fully appreciate the food. Too busy playing “hosts”.
Original plan was to order from the menu, items that we wanted to try. Chef Hardy had other plans.
Amuse Bouche
Salmon tartare on toast, a demitasse of Vichyssoise.
Iced Harvest of the Sea
King Crab, Maine Lobster, Abalone, Ahi Poke, Hamachi, Ahi Sashimi, Oysters, Â Prawns, Spanish Galician Octopus
The receding sun was playing havoc to picture taking. It’s all good.
Speaking of sunset …

Helix Escargots Bourgogne
Half-a-dozen French snails, in Michel’s famous herbed-garlic butter. The Cat was happy, and getting full.
Tableside Prepping
Warm Baby Spinach Salad
Garnished with Macadamia Nuts Over Warm Bacon & Â Marinated Shiitake Mushrooms Drizzled with Onion Vinaigrette
One of the best spinach salads (it’s all about the dressing).
Sorry, have to get ready to leave for work.
Will continue later. Stay tuned.
Enjoy. Eat well.
