A glimpse into last night’s dinner: duck confit as the main course and cider-poached purple goddess pears for dessert. Thank you to those special folks that joined us for this delightful fall meal, we appreciate your continued interest and support.

The menu for the fourth Idyll Edulis Wednesday dinner was a warm welcome to the new season, in which the first signs of autumn were showcased, starting with squash, lingering with wild mushrooms and ending with apples.
It was a typical drizzly fall evening in Seattle. Quite frankly, the perfect weather for venturing to a cozy neighborhood home to enjoy a beautifully warm meal among friends, new and old.

A warm thanks goes out to each and every guest that attended the dinner, and we hope everyone enjoyed both the food and the company. Please share your thoughts, suggestions, praise or commentary.
