From blistered shishito peppers and rosemary cashews washed down with a French 75, to a perfect, summery peach crisp with whipped cream, we ate well at chez Sarah&Gabe tonight. In between appetizers and dessert, we had…
…. a refreshingly fresh gazpacho with basil/goat cheese “ice cream” (this picture was taken before the basil leaf garnish was added) …
…. shrimp sauteed in olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes.. and other seasonings I imagine, but didn’t see …
… mushrooms that were sauteed in a vinaigrette (whose ingredients I missed), then impaled on a skewer in descending size order and mounted on a cube of french bread (the Spanish way). The master at work…

Here’s the spread:

All in all, a luscious meal, in a relaxed setting, with lively conversation, on a warm summer night in the California foothills.
