Went to The Alembic with Randy and Arsie last night for some post-tattoo (Randy's, not mine) dinner and drinks. Something about the Alembic (the whisky perhaps?) always has me feeling more adventurous than usual about food. This time, it was the bone marrow. Which wasn't what I expected. (Not sure what it was I had expected.) Taste and consistency of salty fat. Not...bad. But...not something I'll miss if I never had again.
Finished the night with a taste of a great microbrew -- Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron, an ale brewed in tanks made of palo santo wood. Jaw-droppingly good. I suspect it will pair perfectly with their spiced fries. And that that suspicion will be tested this weekend...
