Events Upcoming: Allure of Flowers After Hours
Posted By Kimberly Lawson on Wed, Jun 4, 2014 at 9:12 AM
Recently, I attended a Taste of the Mint event, during which a group of cultured - or, in my case, pseudo-cultured - people sampled foods and wine from e2 Emeril's Eatery and Halcyon before taking a guided tour of the Mint Museum's Women of Vision exhibit. To say it was a pleasant evening is an understatement. The conversation was easy, the samples filling and the exhibit was stellar. (Interesting tidbit: One photographer's work inspired the movie Frozen. Cue "Let It Go" in your head.)
So, basically, you missed out.

Dorie Greenspan's Tiramisu Cake
This layered cake is definitely a "pick-me-up" with a little booze and caffeine.

I don't think I'll be making this again, but hey, if you like shallots more than a fat kid likes cake, then go for it.
