By last Saturday evening my body had conveniently moved to the recovery phase from some nasty respiratory virus that had plagued me for most of the week. Most importantly for a planned birthday dinner, my appetite was back -- as things turned out, I was going to need it.
We arrived at Metacom Kitchen right at 7pm and were seated at the food bar, in the back of the restaurant overlooking the kitchen. For the next 2-and-a-half hours this would be home. . .

| 1st: Duck Skin Salad |
 |
| 2nd: Chicken and Mushroom soup |
 |
| 3rd: Vitello Tonnato (my request) |
 |
| 4th: Salmon Belly a la Planche |
 |
| 5th: Seared Scarlet Snapper |
 |
| 6th: Torchon on Foie Gras |
 |
| 7th: Moroccan spiced tenderloin of Colorado Lamb |
 |
| 8th: Chocolate Ganache |
The food was incredible: creative, delicious, and well-presented. The quality of the food was almost surpassed by the wonderful service. In a world where restaurants abound, many of them outstanding, Metacom is simply and absolutely one of the best.
