After the cheese platter we began dinner with Borscht

Then a salad of baby asparagus, tomato tartare and clive oil

The artichoke ravioli wasn't pretty enough for a photo, but I thought the basil oil in the barigoule vinaigrette looked pretty.

And the roulade of duck breast with creamed sweet corn and mushroom sauce was definitely worth a photo

As was the dessert, ile flottante

It was a lovely night, although the service was a little slow - I really need someone else to assemble the dishes for me so there is less time between courses. It probably didn't help that I wanted to photograph the meals and I forgot to photograph the guests! And I would like to thank my guests for not only their company but for being my guinea pigs in this experimental dinner, Thanks so much Ellie and Kate (Paul and Rich, too)!
