I was invited to a restaurant; Cochineal for dinner. You never imagine this amazing restaurant exists in middle of nowhere in Texas. Their quality is top restaurant in NY, London or Tokyo or even Paris! If i pick up my favorite top 10 restaurants in the world then definitely they are in. Well, the fact this is a little town that art collectors from all over the world fly over here with private jet to buy art piece. Then make sense? This restaurant serve to those people who know all good restaurants in the world. Also I was amazed how contemporary to use different ingredients. Soon i found a reason; one of owner chef was Japanese! This handmade spaghetti with sauteed Shitake mushrooms, black forest ham and fresh sage was shocking! Harmony of all ingredients was just perfect! One of best pasta dish i had ever eaten.
Texas wedge Salad
Wood grilled loin pork with dijon mustard sauce, sauteed spinach and a leek and potato terrine

Wops, they forgot to put candle for chocolate cake so they brought another cake with candle for me.
