Dining Out - Ember

Haven't been to Ember since earlier this year so it was nice to be treated to a dinner at this lovely restaurant last night.

Started out with some gorgeously plump seared scallops wrapped with bacon and paired with a salad which had a light citrus-y dressing.

The main was the rack of lamb, which the waitstaff warned "the chef serves pink". I would be truly disappointed if it weren't.

Unfortunately it was served with leeks, which I'm not too fond of, but the lamb was just right - tender and juicy. Although somehow it made me think fondly of Oso's eight-hour oven-baked lamb rack, which I really would love to feast on one day - I'd only sampled some morsels off my friend's plate the last time.

The only dessert that called out to me was the Valrhona chocolate cake. Not terribly exciting I know, but it was, as always, a delight with its warm chocolate oozing forth, paired with vanilla ice-cream and a glass of dessert wine.

Monday blues? Not when you get the day off, do some shopping and end the day with some good food and good company.
