Truffle Galore

Yes, I have heard so much about truffles and watched countless cooking show where the chefs were using truffle oil, truffle sauce and truffle shavings. Well, apparently Mandarig is having a truffle festival.

These fine delicacies are very much sought after in Europe and all the top restaurants around the world. Because they grow underground, to harvest the truffles its like mining for diamond. Truffles only grow in the wild, which makes it even more difficult to find.

Well, for $150 per person, there a restaurant who will do a 7 course meal. This will be our next food and wine tasting, possible in August. I will provide a full review once i have tasted it.



I shall try one day to use truffle in my cooking.
