Aurora Takes a Holiday!?!

Beginning July 22 – July 30, Avner and I (and the rest of the family) are going to do something unheard of for the Samuels – we are going to Europe for VACATION! Of course, it’s impossible to drag Avner away from the kitchen too long, so while we are there, we are going to check out the latest and greatest in "New French" cuisine. And since food is such an important part of the Samuels' life, we would like to share our experience of traveling through what we know best -- food. So check out our daily blog to see the world through Avner's eyes.

PLEASE NOTE: Aurora will be closed July 22 and reopen July 30 for dinner.

Oh food, glorious food!

It's raining here...raining something dreadful! I thought we might escape the flooding in Dallas - but I guess that like smoke, rain follows beauty :).
So it took a little bit of persuading, but I don't think that we would have picked anything more appropo of us to partake first in Paris than caviar. Oh look at how good this Beluga, sevruga and osetra looks (I figured the picture was best taken before we ravaged it.)
The menu at Aurora features all three of these caviar types as Avner loves flavor burst that caviar gives to foods, especially in Aurora's amuse bouche.
